There is growing agreement that now is the time to initiate a new, coordinated vision for climate impacts research. The IMPACTS WORLD 2013 conference in Potsdam will for the first time bring together the wealth of climate change research and researchers from around the world, with the goal of setting a state-of-the-art agenda for climate impact research.

IMPACTS WORLD 2013 will lay the foundation for regular, community-driven syntheses of climate change impact analyses.

From May 27-30 2013 leading scientists and decision makers from local to international levels will discuss the development of:

• Comprehensive impact assessments, covering all scales and sectors;
• Uncertainty in impact modelling;
• The role of intelligent regional case studies; and
• Communication of climate impacts to decision makers from the local to the international level.

Registration and call for abstracts will open soon.
