PAGES30YBANNER 02As part of the celebrations for PAGES 30th anniversary, a special issue of Past Global Changes Magazine will be published in May 2021.

Would you like to share a story?

We're calling on current and past working group members, working group leaders, SSC, EXCOM and ECN members, guest scientists, and workshop attendees to contribute.

Please send a short text (max 100 words) and, if you wish, an accompanying photo with caption (preferably at least 300 dpi) about a particularly memorable or funny experience with PAGES to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. by 30 October 2020, using the subject line "30th anniversary contribution".

Alternatively, you can also just send a photo and caption. Please make sure any identifiable people in the photos have given their permission.

We look forward to showcasing your stories and images in the magazine and on a dedicated 30th anniversary page on PAGES' website.

Financial support for meetings

mtg-support-imgThe next deadline for PAGES' workshop/meeting support applications is Wednesday 16 September 2020.

Applicants must contact an SSC member at least two weeks before the deadline (i.e by 2 September) to explain the meeting plan and how it is relevant to PAGES.

The meeting or workshop should be scheduled to take place at least six months after the application deadline (i.e. preferably from March 2021 onwards).

PAGES offers meeting support under three categories of workshops:
- PAGES' working group meetings
- Educational meetings
- Open call meetings

clipartbest.com-team 300x204Does your heart pound for paleoscience? Know others who feel the same?

Propose a new PAGES' working group to address a scientific question in an internationally coordinated way. The application deadline is Wednesday 16 September 2020.

You must contact a member of the PAGES Scientific Steering Committee to discuss your plans at least two weeks before you submit the proposal (i.e. by 2 September).​ Applications received without SSC member notification will not be looked upon favorably.

Our 30th anniversary

PAGES30YPatch V2Celebrations are starting for PAGES' 30th anniversary!

Since 1991, PAGES has been at the forefront of paleoscience research and collaboration, bringing together international scientists to study past changes in the Earth system in order to improve projections of future climate and environment, and inform strategies for sustainability.

PAGES is truly fortunate to have had steady scientific and financial support on which to build its contributions to global paleoenvironmental and sustainability science.

Thirty years ago, Hans Oeschger, Jack Eddy, Herman Zimmerman and others' efforts convinced the International Geosphere Biosphere Program (IGBP) to create the precursors of PAGES, and to obtain funding for global scientific activities from the US and Swiss national science foundations.

Their objective – to use the past to discover complex Earth-system processes that are relevant to future dynamics, but which are difficult to access through short-term observations or experiments – was visionary.

All these years later, and through the transition of PAGES from the IGBP into a Global Research Project of Future Earth, this goal remains as relevant and motivating as ever.

PAGES co-chair Mike Evans said it is difficult to overestimate the significance of PAGES' longevity for accelerating the development of generations of scientists and of scientific advances.

C-SIDE special issue open

Details
Published: Wednesday, 22 July 2020 12:21

C SIDESubmissions are now being accepted to the PAGES' Cycles of Sea-Ice Dynamics in the Earth system (C-SIDE) working group special issue of Climate of the Past.

"Reconstructing Southern Ocean sea-ice dynamics on glacial-to-historical timescales" will be edited by Karen Kohfeld, Xavier Crosta, Alice Marzocchi, Juliane Müller, Marit-Solveig Seidenkrantz, and Laurie Menviel.

The deadline for submission is 31 December 2021, extendable if necessary.

Papers are invited on the topics of (a) new sea-ice reconstructions in the Southern Ocean using new and established proxies of changes in sea ice; (b) regional compilations of changes in sea-ice distributions during the last glacial–interglacial cycle; (c) studies comparing (new and published) sea-ice records with complementary records of changes in circulation, temperature, and nutrient or carbon cycling; and (d) model analysis and model–data comparison papers that provide insights into the key processes linking Southern Ocean sea-ice changes with ice sheet, atmosphere, and ocean dynamics, as well as biogeochemical cycling in the ocean.
