ANNOUNCEMENT

Welcome to the website of the iCACGP/IGAC joint International Atmospheric Chemistry Conference, which will take place from 11th to 15th September 2022.

We are delighted to host the iCACGP-IGAC Joint International Atmospheric Chemistry Conference in Manchester in 2022.  This is the leading global atmospheric chemistry conference.  It is run quadrenially, alongside the biannual IGAC Conferences and attracts approximately 600 international scientists, industry leaders, and early career researchers from around the world and includes many leading funding agencies.  

As we emerge from the Covid-19 pandemic and the restrictions on international interactions that has placed on all of us we are delighted to be able to plan a conference that welcomes scientists from across the globe to Manchester.  We are also keen to learn from our experiences of remote working to seek to make the conference as accessible as possible to a wide audience.

The Scientific Steering Committee is developing an exciting programme that spans air pollution to global change and links fundamental research to policy development, interfacing atmospheric science with wider biogeochemistry of the Earth System.  The conference follows the strong tradition of previous conferences, not only highlighting cutting edge scientific research in atmospheric chemistry, but also fostering international collaborations, and highlighting scientists and their research from developing and emerging regions.  As in previous years, the Science Conference encourages early career scientists and makes every effort to showcase their science.  We have an exciting early career programme to develop the next generation of leaders in our field and also to foster their interaction within and across our community.

We are delighted to welcome you to Manchester, the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, and now a vibrant, multi-cultural modern city with easy access to some of the best countryside in the UK.  The atmospheric chemistry community from across our region welcomes you to the UK.  

We greatly looking forward to seeing you in Manchester in September 2022 and hope that we can use this as a great opportunity to help rebuild and grow our vibrant community.
