6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6 From: Thomas Aubry <thom.aubry@xxxxxxxxx> Dear colleagues, We invite submissions to our session "*Interactions between volcanic eruptions and climate*â?? under Theme 6: Hazard, Risk and Impact at the upcoming IAVCEI 2025 Scientific Assembly from 29 June to 4 July 2025. *Session description:* Volcanic eruptions impact the Earthâ??s climate and environment on a range of temporal and spatial scales. Large volcanic eruptions caused global cooling, and can affect key modes of climate variability, such as the North Atlantic Oscillation, and Monsoon systems. Since the beginning of the 21st Century, a series of smaller eruptions have significantly increased the stratospheric aerosol background and may have slightly slowed the rate of global warming. Efforts at climate prediction on seasonal, annual, and decadal scales need to incorporate the recurrence frequencies and effects of volcanic eruptions in their prediction schemes along with oceanic interactions to produce skillful forecasts. In addition, in a rapidly changing climate, it is important to understand how climate change may affect processes that govern volcanic impacts on climate and societies, such as the frequency-magnitude distribution of eruptions, the dispersion of volcanic ash and gas, or the chemical and microphysical processes controlling volcanic aerosol cycle. *Invited speaker: *Prof. Dr. Frank Sirocko, University of Mainz, "Volcanic activity in the Eifel (central Europe) occurred systematically in the millennium before the abrupt North Atlantic warming events of the last 130.000 years" *Abstract submission deadline*: 20 December 2024 https://on-line-form.eu/iavcei2025sa/abstracts/index.php?coo=1 <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://on-line-form.eu/iavcei2025sa/abstracts/index.php?coo=1__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!fjJz9D1Dz1q8nyvYsdI6dK-vW-mRYlpLArnRP87gyYpSrr7sUVISaquIolSb-JAGMyoA6Hst-plMqEFIgjz7T4yPTg$> *Travel grant application deadline*: 15 November 2024 (Early career researchers and students are eligible!) https://sa2025.iavceivolcano.org/travel-grants/ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://sa2025.iavceivolcano.org/travel-grants/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!Z2SUS3JZ7dXykJtfFXnOo6X4xIuEtHDGymO-j5W1SxCNYB-VHQVxkw8_X3JmjcV4ibIwSlJPox7B1mI75GwVpT7s7Q$> Please share this call for abstracts with colleagues, students, and other researchers in your network who might be interested.
