ABOUT THE JOINT CONFERENCEThe Joint International conference on Cryospheric Changes and Influences—Cryospheric

Issues in Regional Sustainable Development will be held in Lijiang, China during August 12-14,

2010. The aim of the conference is to promote our understanding on changes in all

components of the cryosphere and their interdependence and causes, our current capabilities

to model and assess these changes, and mitigation and adaptability strategy for the changing

global climate and cryosphere.

To fulfill the aim, the conference strives to enhance and co-ordinate efforts in monitoring

the cryosphere, to model and understand the cryosphere’s role in the climate system, to

assess changes in the cryosphere as indicators of climate change, to quantify the frangibility of

cryosphere and the influences of cryospheric changes on hydrometeorology, society and

economy (such as agriculture, tourism, etc.) in regional sustainable development, to discuss

adaptive countermeasures on cryospheric changes, to facilitate the data collection of

cryospheric systems through standardized measurements, and to provide an international

platform for discussions and publications of results arising from research activities as

mentioned above.

We extends an invitation to those scientists, managers, students as well as

representatives of governments, media and funding organizations, who are interested in

cryoshperic sciences, from across the world to attend the conference which offers a great

opportunity for extensive discussion and cooperation.

Lijiang named following its position at the middle reach of the beautiful Jinsha River, and

is the main region inhabited by Naxi Group with their splendid Dongba Culture. Lijiang has the

best preserved ancient town in China - the Old Town which has been listed in the World

Cultural Heritages by UNESCO in 1997. The Old Town was built in the late Song dynasty and

the early Yuan dynasty, and continues to maintain the original flavor of the local lifestyle, the

typical groups of buildings and the profound cultural heritage of the region. "The city depends

on water for existence and water comes along with the city" has become one of the main

features of the old town. Around Lijiang, there are a number of splendid natural beauty spots

that will certainly astonish people, such as, Yulong Snow Mountain. Locating between 100 04'-

100 16' E and 27 03'-27 40' N, Mt. Yulong (Jade Dragon Snow Mountain) is the southernmost

glacier in the Northern Hemisphere. Consisting of 13 peaks, among which Shanzidou is the

highest one with an altitude of 5600 m. Looking from Lijiang Old Town in the south, the snow-

covered and fog-enlaced mountain resembles a jade dragon lying in the clouds, hence, the

name Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Mt. Yulong is a sanctuary for rare animals and wild plants,

and now is a famous scenic spot for sightseeing, mountaineering, skiing, exploration, scientific

research and taking holiday.

MAIN TOPICSThe conference focuses on cryospheric changes and influences on the regional

sustainable development. It includes the following topics:

1. Cryospheric distribution and changes (including glacier, ice caps and ice sheets,

permafrost, frozen ground, snowfall snow cover, sea ice, lake ice and river ice);

2. Cold region hydrology and water resources;

3. Regional cryosphere-atmosphere-hydrology-ecology interactions;

4. Cryospheric disasters;

5. Influences of Cryospheric changes on regional development;

6. Frangibility and adaptability of cryosphere;

7. Mitigation and adaptive countermeasures on cryospheric changes.
