2016 AGU FALL MEETING 1 WELCOME TO FALL MEETING 49th Annual Meeting
Scientists have traveled to San Francisco for nearly half a century to be a part of the American Geophysical Union’s Fall Meeting. It’s the premier event for discovering new, cutting-edge Earth and space science research, engaging with a global and interdisciplinary network of nearly 24,000 attendees, and advancing and building your career through workshops and new connections.
Margaret Leinen Chris McEntee The spirit of discovery and vibrant discussions taking place at Fall Meeting are what make the week so rewarding. This year, we have another excellent lineup of sessions and speakers. We’re honored to have H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco as our Presidential Forum Lecturer and Marcia McNutt, the 22nd president of the National Academy of Sciences and former director of the U.S. Geological Survey, as our Union Agency Lecturer. We’re hosting a town hall on data with Rebecca Moore, director of Google Earth, Earth Engine and Outreach, which should be an illuminat- ing discussion on the importance of data in Earth and space sciences, and we’re also particularly excited for the
WELCOME LETTERS WELCOME 21st Conference of the Parties (COP21) Union Session with COP21 President Ségolène Royal entitled “The Path Forward from Paris, One Year Later,” which should be especially interesting given the recent ratifications from the United Nations allowing the Paris Agreement to enter into force.
Whether you’re a developing young student scientist or a recognized leader in your discipline, presenting or attending, Fall Meeting is a fulfilling experience that you can tailor to your interests or use to branch out to explore new frontiers. Our public lecture, which is a great opportunity to engage the broader public on issues of Earth and space science, is about choosing a landing site on Mars and features both an astrobiologist and a geomorphologist from NASA, as well as a talented high school student. We’re continuing our interdisciplinary SWIRL themes, which give attendees the benefit of sharing research, discoveries, and approaches across disci- plines. Geohealth, a new SWIRL topic this year, will bring together sessions on climate change and human health, medical geology, the interface between water quality and health, and much more. Adding to the spirit of collaboration, this year we have 109 sessions that were co-organized across sections and focus groups.
We hope you’re able to make the most of your time in San Francisco. Because we know you can’t possibly attend every session or poster that interests you, we’ve expanded our AGU On-Demand viewing platform by offering live streaming and recorded content that goes hand in hand with our SWIRL themes.
Be sure to join us for our networking or social events, take part in a deeper discussion happening on social media by following and using the #AGU16 hashtag, and make the most of the city’s great food and attractions. After this year, Fall Meeting breaks tradition and moves to New Orleans in 2017 and Washington, D.C., in 2018. We are so pleased to have you join us as we say goodbye to San Francisco, and it is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 2016 AGU Fall Meeting!
Sincerely,
Margaret Leinen, AGU President Christine McEntee, AGU Executive Director and CEO
2 2016 AGU FALL MEETING It is sincerely great to see and meet you once more in San Francisco for the 2016 edition of AGU Fall Meeting! You may have noticed that every year changes to both the organization and the scientific content of the program were introduced to make you feel more comfort- able at the largest meeting of Earth and Space sciences. This year, more changes were imple- mented in the program, which I would like to highlight to you below.
• First, after last year’s successful trials, new session formats were implemented that include panel discussions and lightning talks. This option was offered to the conveners when submit- Denis Rousseau ting their session proposals allowing them the opportunity to think about organizing their session differently than the traditional 15-minute pattern. Follow-up discussions can even be organized through specially designed slots available for reservation by AGU meetings staff.
• We introduced this year a limitation in the number of invited authors. After significant discussion within the Fall Meeting Program Committee, the policy has been changed to allow for no more than two (2) invited authors per session – this is a reduction from the previous limit of four (4) but should allow more regular presentations to be selected.
• The differences between the collaborative session formats: cross-listed, co-sponsored, and co-organized LETTERS WELCOME have been clarified to help conveners to understand and find out what kind of collaborative session they can organize. Such differences are more than simple jargon, and truly correspond to different ways of organizing scientific sessions.
• We’ve redesigned our New Generation of Scientists Union Session, designed to demonstrate even earlier the great interest and care of AGU for the development of the younger generations of scientists. Although original- ly a gathering in celebration of the Macelwane medalists and the recipient of the Science for Solution award, this session will now also acknowledge the recipients of the Africa Awards for Research Excellence in Earth and Space Science making this session a true showcase for the diversity of early career scientists and their work.
• Concerning participation in the scientific program, SWIRLS and the On-Demand channels have been finally homogenized to prevent the confusion that was created from having two different lists of scientific categories in the program. In doing so, we offer another way of participating on-site and remotely in the 2016 edition of the Fall Meeting. The list of SWIRLS and On-Demand channels are: Union, Climate, Geohealth, Earth Processes, Science & Society, Natural Resources, Planetary Discovery, Data & Rising Technology, Extreme Events & Hazards.
• Lastly and not least, last year’s COP21 Union Session has been re-scheduled and will be held just one day after the first anniversary of the COP21 agreement. Entitled, “The Path Forward From Paris, One Year Later,” it should attract significant attention due to receiving the signing of the treaty at the United Nations headquarters last April, and its upcoming implementation in 2017 with ratification from the needed 55 Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change accounting for at least 55 percent of the total global greenhouse gas emissions earlier in October. This high level panel discussion, with COP21 President Segolène Royal, will be a stimulating combination with this year’s format of the Frontiers in Geophysics Lecture, another high level panel about “Shifting the energy mix in a post-Paris world,” which corresponds to one of the actions proposed to be engaged rapidly under the Agenda of Solutions of the signed Agreement.
There’s too much to cover the whole program in detail, but besides these highlights, all sections and focus groups have been working hard to propose exciting sessions that, we expect, will contribute to advancing science across many important topics. These sessions have been designed to attract colleagues from other fields for potential interdisciplinary collaboration.
I hope that you find these developments as exciting as I do, and that you will find the 2016 AGU Fall Meeting fulfills your expectations.
I wish you a very stimulating meeting, and take this opportunity to wish you and your family a very nice season’s greetings.
Denis-Didier Rousseau Fall Meeting Program Chair

2016 AGU FALL MEETING 9 KEYNOTES An Inside Look
H.S.H. Prince Albert II—Presidential Forum Lecturer Monday, 12 December, 12:30 P.M–1:15 P.M., Moscone North, Hall E
H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco acceded to the throne on July 12, 2005. The following year, he created the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, which continues his personal commitment for the protection of the environment by supporting sustainable, ethical and innovative projects around the world, with a focus on three main challenges: fighting against climate change and promoting renewable energy; combating the loss of biodiversity; and preserving water resources.
In January 2009, Prince Albert II of Monaco undertook a scientific journey in the Antarctic. This journey follows upon two other expeditions realized in Arctic in 2005 (Spitzberg) and 2006 when he reached the North Pole by sledge.
H.S.H. the Prince received, among others, the Teddy Roosevelt medal at the United States Congress, the Roger Revelle prize at the University of California in San Diego, and the B.A.U.M Environmental award in Hamburg. These distinctions were awarded to him in acknowledgement of his actions towards environmental protection. KEYNOTES Shifting the Energy Mix in a Post-Paris World—Union Frontiers of Geophysics Lecture Moderator: Andrew Revkin Tuesday, 13 December, 12:30 P.M – 1:30 P.M., Moscone North, Hall E
The panel will present economic, scientific and industry viewpoints on future energy demand, the shifting energy mix/energy trade offs and the economic, social, and political drivers of those shifts in a post Paris COP 21 world. Questions to be explored include: How does the work to meet COP21 agreements get done on the ground? Where are the trade-offs in the energy mix that will allow for rapid decarbonization without under- mining economic growth and electrification in developing nations like India? And what role can scientists play in asking and answering key questions in achieving this massive transition?
Marcia McNutt—Union Agency Lecturer Thursday, 15 December, 12:30 P.M – 1:30 P.M., Moscone North, Hall E
From 2013 to 2016, McNutt was editor-in-chief of Science journals. She was also director of the U.S. Geological Survey from 2009 to 2013, during which time USGS responded to a number of major disasters, including the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. For her work to help contain that spill, McNutt was awarded the U.S. Coast Guard’s Meritorious Service Medal. She is a fellow of the American Geophysical Union (AGU), Geological Society of America, American Association for the Advancement of Science, and the International Association of Geodesy. Her honors include membership in the American Philosophical Society and the American Acade- my of Arts and Sciences. In 1998, McNutt was awarded AGU’s Macelwane Medal for research accomplishments by a young scientist, and she received the Maurice Ewing Medal in 2007 for her contributions to deep-sea exploration. McNutt has a B.A. in physics, Colorado College; and a Ph.D. in Earth sciences, Scripps Institution of Oceanography.
