The symposium
To kick-off, we’re hosting a two-day research symposium at the University of Oxford, and you're invited!
We hope this symposium helps revive subject-specific domestic meetings in our field. These meetings are vital to the continued strength of cloud and atmospheric physics research in the UK. They introduce new ideas and collaborators, help shape research directions, and support researchers in exploring and planning their future careers.
If you’re interested in attending, or engaging virtually, sign-up now and we’ll notify you when registration opens.
Got questions, comments or ideas? Reach out! We’d love to have you involved. Otherwise, thanks for your interest, can’t wait to see you in Oxford in March!
Research focus
We welcome contributions across all aspects of cloud physics. Topics include cloud microphysics, aerosol-cloud interactions, turbulence and dynamics, mesoscale organisation, circulation coupling, and cloud-climate feedbacks. Studies spanning a wide range of spatial and temporal scales are encouraged, from microscale process-level investigations and case studies to large-scale, global or climate-scale analyses. Theoretical, observational, and modelling approaches are all welcome, as well as machine and deep learning or research tools development.
Beyond the symposium
We hope the 2026 symposium is the first of many. But beyond these in-person events, we hope to progress the goals of the UK Early-Career Cloud Physics Group in other ways. Currently, our ideas include: regular seminars, reading groups, news and opportunities collated on this website, and more.
But what do you think? We’d love to hear your thoughts and have you involved.
