Walter Orr Roberts Public Lecture Series
During the Science Session workshops, AGCI hosts public lectures from leading scientists as part of an event series named in honor of Walter Orr Roberts, a notable scientist, humanitarian and founder of the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder. This series, running for over 25 years, has featured nearly 70 public lectures by leading scientists on the gamut of global change topics from changes in biodiversity to the climate of earth's past, present, and future.AGCI Science Sessions
Conceived in 1989 and conducted each year since 1990, AGCI interdisciplinary workshops are designed to further knowledge in global change science by convening scholars from across disciplines to focus on specific topics in global environmental change. These meetings consistently fill a unique niche by fostering a strong dialogue across disciplines and often between social and natural sciences.
