CFMIP-CloudSense Meeting 2025

The CFMIP-CloudSense 2025 meeting will be held from 7- 10 July 2025 at the University of Exeter, UK.

This 4-day conference will focus on the following topics, considering models, observations, and laboratory experiments on a wide range of scales:

1. Cloud processes: What processes control cloud phase, cloud radiative effects, and precipitation? 
2. Cloud microphysics: What processes control cloud microphysics, including cloud-aerosol interactions and their impact on climate?
3. Circulation and climate dynamics: How do clouds couple to circulations and what role does this coupling play in weather and climate?
4. Climate feedbacks and sensitivity: How do clouds respond to external perturbations? How do clouds influence climate sensitivity and patterns of change?
5. Energy Imbalance: How do we measure, model, and understand the factors controlling Earth’s energy imbalance?
6. Convection: What processes control shallow and deep convection including organization, and how do these interactions affect climate and weather?

The conference will consist of oral presentations, poster sessions, and social/networking events.  The conference will be held in-person only.
