The primary activities of the Working Group take place at workshops, with followup work back in our home institutes.
We welcome proposals for workshops and new contributors.

Conferences with MHW sessions:
2023 April, Bergen Norway - 5th Effects of climate change on the world's ocean. S5: Measuring and predicting responses of marine social-ecological systems to climate extremes. Encourage submissions related to climate extremes and associated compound events that: (1) improve understanding of the physical and biogeochemical processes of extreme events; (2) describe ecological and/or socio-economic consequences; (3) describe potential adaptation and management strategies that could mitigate these impacts, including those that advance forecasting of extreme and compound events. 2022 ICES - Dublin - September 2022 Theme Session E. Understanding and anticipating extreme events: their frequency. Our discussions will focus around extreme events, including stock collapses, regime shifts, marine heatwaves, cold snaps and storms. We will discuss the impacts these events can have on ecosystems, fisheries and livelihoods, and how these can recover afterwards. We'll also discuss advances in modelling that demonstrate that some of these events may be changing in frequency or severity as a result of climate change, but also that scientist's ability to predict or anticipate such events is starting to improve. International Conference on Southern Hemisphere Meteorology and Oceanography (ICHSMO 2022) Session: New frontiers in Marine Heatwave Research Conveners: Alex Sen Gupta, Neil Holbrook, Regina Rodrigues, Claire Spillman, Erik Behrens, Moninya Roughan, Mads Thomsen.
