Fifth Annual Meeting of the IAMC 2012
November 12, 2012 - November 13, 2012
Foundation of Renswoude
The 5th IAMC Annual Meeting met in 2012 from November 12th and 13th at the Foundation of Renswoulde, Utrecht, Netherlands.
A summary report recounting general themes and specific research findings presented at the fifth annual meeting was compiled by Detlef P. van Vuuren, Jasper van Vliet, Andries Hof, Paul Lucas, and Tom Kram.

Background
The purpose of the IAMC Annual Meeting was to (1) present and discuss the state of the art in integrated assessment modeling, (2) review the status of ongoing community activities including both multi-model studies and the activities of the IAMC Scientific Working Groups, (3) facilitate interaction with collaborating communities, and (4) evaluate and revisit the priorities of the integrated assessment community.
Roughly half of the meeting was devoted to four sessions on cutting edge areas of integrated assessment model development and research:
- Climate Modeling in Integrated Assessment
- Modeling Impacts and Adaptation in Integrated Assessment
- Evaluation, Diagnostics, and Uncertainty in Integrated Assessment
- Modeling Land, Water, and Energy Interactions in Integrated Assessment
Included were presentations on cutting edge research activities from members of the community followed by open group discussion of key priorities in these areas of research.
