Training School – Climate Change Impacts on Water Resources and Agriculture, Marocco
Understanding and anticipating the impacts of climate change on water resources and agriculture has become a major challenge for both research and territorial planning. This training school will provide participants with the concepts, methods, and practical tools needed to conduct impact studies, from climate projections to their integration into hydrological and agronomic models. Combining lectures and hands-on sessions, the programme will cover climate system fundamentals, climate modelling, bias correction and downscaling techniques, as well as hydrological and agronomic modelling approaches for impact assessment.
The training is open to PhD students, researchers, academics, and engineers from public institutions and private companies.
The event will take place at the Faculty of Sciences and Techniques of Marrakech, Morocco, from 2 to 6 November 2026.
Participation is free of charge, and registration includes coffee breaks and lunches. Accommodation and travel expenses remain the responsibility of participants. As places are limited, early registration is encouraged.
Application deadline: 5 September 2026

Monsoon School on Remote Sensing Observation for Critical Zone Science – Bengaluru, India
15–17 October 2026
As part of the 25th anniversary of IFCWS/CEFIRSE, Space4Sust will contribute to the organization of a two-day-and-a-half Monsoon School dedicated to remote sensing observation for critical zone science, hosted at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru, from 15 to 17 October 2026.
The programme will combine lectures and practical sessions introducing participants to the use of Earth observation data for monitoring and understanding critical zone processes across scales. Topics will include remote sensing methods, environmental monitoring, and applications for hydrology and land surface characterization.
The school is open to a broad scientific audience, with lectures accessible to all participants and hands-on sessions dedicated to registered trainees. It aims to foster exchanges between researchers, students, and practitioners working at the interface of remote sensing, hydrology, and environmental sciences.
DART Thematic School 2026 will take place in June 1–4, 2026 in Toulouse, France.
This training session aims to improve understanding of how radiation interacts with the Earth’s surfaces and the atmosphere — a central issue for:
- interpreting remote sensing signals,
- modelling land surface processes driven by radiative transfer.
DART (Discrete Anisotropic Radiative Transfer) is a 3D radiative transfer model developed at CESBIO since 1992. It is one of the most comprehensive and accurate models used in remote sensing. DART simulates how radiation propagates and interacts within complex environments (vegetation canopies, soils, urban areas, water bodies, and the atmosphere), enabling the computation of both radiative budgets and remote sensing observations across multiple spectral domains and sensor configurations.
During the school, participants will:
- understand the challenges and needs in radiative transfer modelling,
- explore the state of the art of DART and its applications,
- deepen their knowledge of remote sensing physics and radiative transfer theory,
- gain hands-on experience using DART to simulate observations and radiative budgets,
- apply DART to their own research projects.
Registration is open until April 17, 2026.

ThermalEO will take place in Toulouse from 6–8 October 2025
It will focus on recent advances in thermal remote sensing for monitoring the Earth surface water cycle under climate and environmental change. The conference will highlight scientific and application developments related to upcoming missions such as TRISHNA mission, LSTM mission, and SBG mission. Main themes include ecosystem stress and water use, inland and coastal waters, urban climate, cryosphere processes, solid Earth, and atmospheric interactions.
Registration is open until July 1st, 2025.
ISPRS Technical Commission III, Mid-term Symposium ON Remote Sensing will be held from November 4-8, 2024 Belém, Brazil.
ISPRS Technical Commission III is dedicated to the technologies and applications of remote sensing. It is jointly hosted by Brazil and France from 2022 to 2026 and its mid-term symposium will be held in Belém. It covers a very wide range of topics related to remote sensing: from space image acquisition and processing techniques (space missions, sensors, algorithms, etc.), with sessions devoted to new missions (SWOT, Biomass, etc.), to a wide range of applications in the Earth sciences, climate, environment, and society, with a particular focus on the Amazon and tropical environments.
Registration opening March 1, 2024
Indo-French Monsoon School on Hydrology from Space will be held from October 16-18, 2023 at IISc Bangalore.
Upcoming satellite mission dedicated to monitor hydrological cycles, such as SWOT, NISAR or TRISHNA offers an opportunity to get new type of data to built future downstream services to wide range of users. This Monsoon School in Hydrology for Space, held in India will focus on a one-day workshop which gathers specialists involved in the design of the satellite missions, for an overview of the state of the art of the current knowledge of the missions outline, and a two-days training session focusing on mastering the use of open-source models for evapotranspiration, streamflow or soil moisture retrieval, as well
as the assimilation of the current and future remote sensing products and variables into a hydrological modelling platform that runs from plot scale to region.
No Registration Fee.
To apply, send detailed bio-data (including date of birth, academic background, work experience) via e-mail to indo.french.monsoon.school@gmail.com.
