THEMES 2025
International conference, 12-14th November 2025, Venice

Conference

“Long-term trends, abrupt shifts and extreme events in oceanic and atmospheric variability”

Since 2015, THEMES brings together climatologists, ecologists, oceanographers, and modelers to discuss the present state of knowledge and the opportunities for progress about measuring, modelling and predicting the evolution of Earth environments. THEMES aims at paving the way towards improved cooperation between the different groups active in the climatological, atmospheric, oceanographic and ecological investigation of our Planet.

Venue

The workshop will be held at Ca' Foscari (2nd floor, Aula Mario Baratto), Dorsoduro 3246, 30123 Venice.

The city of Venice is a World Heritage Site, and does not require much presentation.

How to move around Venice

If you come by plane, there are two bus services that link the Marco Polo airport to the cities of Venice and Mestre: ACTV  and ATVO.

Both services depart from the airport outside arrivals, and have the same cost.
