SUMMARY:CRISTAL 2027: SCIENCE AND APPLICATIONS WORKSHOP
DESCRIPTION:\n\nBackground\n\n\nThe CRISTAL Science and Applications Workshop 2027 will bring together the scientific\, operational and user communities preparing for the exploitation of the Copernicus Polar Ice and Snow Topography Altimeter mission. The workshop will review the state of the art in CRISTAL-relevant algorithms across sea ice\, land ice\, inland water and ocean domains\, and will provide a forum for discussion of mission readiness\, product use and cross-mission synergies. \nThe programme will include CRISTAL-related studies and campaigns\, including airborne and preparatory activities such as the CRISTALair airborne demonstrator and calibration/validation concepts. It will also address the links between CRISTAL and heritage or companion missions\, including CryoSat-2\, ICESat-2\, CIMR\, ROSE-L and Sentinel-3\, with emphasis on how CRISTAL science can bridge across missions and services. \nThe workshop will take place from 11 May 2027 to 14 May 2027 at ECSAT\, Harwell\, UK\, in the Magali Vaissiere Conference Centre. It is intended for scientists\, engineers\, service providers\, application specialists and Early Career Researchers interested in CRISTAL products and their use across cryosphere\, hydrology\, ocean and coastal applications. \n\nWorkshop Objectives\n\nReview the state of the art in CRISTAL-relevant algorithms across sea ice\, land ice\, inland water and ocean domains.\nPresent results from CRISTAL-related studies\, campaigns and preparatory activities\, including from the CRISTALair airborne demonstrator\, and calibration/validation concepts.\nPrepare the scientific and user communities for exploitation of CRISTAL products\, from services to academia.\nAssess how CRISTAL science bridges across CryoSat-2\, ICESat-2\, CIMR\, ROSE-L and Sentinel-3 science and applications.\nStrengthen interaction between sea-ice\, land-ice\, hydrology\, ocean and coastal communities through joint sessions and cross-disciplinary exchange.\nNurture Early Career Researchers\, including through travel grants and sponsorship where possible.\n\n\nWorkshop Main Themes\n\nCRISTAL mission readiness\, products and operations for services.\nSea ice\, icebergs\, land ice and glacier applications.\nInland waters\, oceans and coastal applications.\nCampaigns\, CRISTALair and calibration/validation concepts.\nPolar mission synergies and links to CryoSat-2\, ICESat-2\, CIMR\, ROSE-L and Sentinel-3.\nCross-disciplinary science questions\, discussion sessions and community recommendations.\n\n\nAbstract Submission\nContributors will be invited to select the most relevant workshop theme and indicate whether they propose an oral or poster presentation.\nNote: Abstract length should be at least 200 words and a maximum of 500 words (one A4 page\, single space normally contains 400-500 words).\nInformation about co-authors\, including name\, affiliation and contact e-mail address\, will be required.  \nFor more information about the abstract submission and relevant deadlines  visit the official event web site 👉https://cristal2027.esa.int/ \nQuestion on the abstract submission? 📧Reach out to the organisers: eo4society.conf@esa.int \n\n\n
