From the outset, the NESSC Days have aimed to bring together the NESSC community in a welcoming and small-scale environment where the diverse, multidisciplinary research of NESSC can be shared and discussed.

On this special occasion, we will host 2 distinguished guests: prof. dr. Corinne Le Quéré, Royal Society Research Professor of Climate Change Science (University of East Anglia) and prof. dr. Eelco Rohling, Professor of Ocean and Climate Change ( Australian National University / University of Southampton).

The event will run for 2 days with an overnight stay in between. Attending the conference, including overnight stay and catering, is free of charge for all participants affiliated to NESSC, including NESSC alumni and invited speakers. Participants not affiliated to NESSC will be asked a participation fee to contribute to the costs. It is possible to request an additional night prior to the NESSC Days for specific circumstances.
