Integrated Earth 2023 Conference

How can we better integrate data across earth systems to address complex earth systems challenges?

Supported by the Australian Academy of Science, this 2-day conference aims to uncover the answers to this pressing question facing researchers, scientists and STEM professionals working across the five Earth systems – geosphere, biosphere, cryosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere, which are essential for all aspects of human existence.

At the conference, we will:

• identify opportunities for data integration and integrated modelling approaches
• accelerate scientific collaboration and create a cross-disciplinary community of practice for Australian Earth and environmental science data.
• focus on negligible integration within and between research activities across these five earth systems, including observing and monitoring, storage and access to data, computing and modelling, and predicting future states.
• advance our understanding of the interdependence of these complex systems, particularly as data has often been collected in isolation, or to address a very specific research problem.

The conference is brought to you by AuScope, Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network (TERN), The National Computational Infrastructure (NCI), Australia’s Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS), Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC), the Australian Earth-System Simulator (ACCESS-NRI), and sponsored by the Australian Academy of Science.
