EXALT Workshop 2026 Announced

We are pleased to announce the workshop “Learning Spatio-Temporal Climate Extremes”, which will take place on May 27, 2026 at Universite catholique de Louvain.

The workshop brings together researchers from statistics and climate to discuss recent methodological advances and open challenges in modelling spatial and temporal patterns of climate extremes.

Invited talks will be given by Sebastian Engelke (University of Geneva), Hans Van de Vyver (Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium), Ben Youngman (University of Exeter), Melinda Galfi (VU Amsterdam), Daniela Castro-Camilo (University of Glasgow), and Alexis Boulin (Ruhr University Bochum).

The schedule now includes the first confirmed talk titles:

• Hans Van de Vyver: Beyond the Observed: A Stochastic Simulation Approach for Impact-Based Storylines
• Melinda Galfi: A Large-Deviation View on Persistent Extremes
