The Canadian Geophysical Union (CGU) is pleased to host its 2027 Annual Scientific Meeting, bringing together geoscientists, engineers, and researchers from private and public industries, and academic institutions from across Canada and around the world.

A highlight of CGU membership is the Annual Scientific Meeting, which provides a vibrant forum to network, collaborate, and share research with colleagues across the geosciences. This year's meeting will also include a few sessions from the Canadian Society of Agricultural and Forest Meteorology (CSAFM), further strengthening collaboration across related disciplines.

This year’s conference will feature:

• Presentations of current research across geosciences in four CGU sections (Hydrology, Biogeosciences, Solid-Earth, and Geodesy) and CSAFM.

• Opportunities to emphasize Canadian-focused research in a global context.

• Recognition of CGU award and student paper winners; please see here. 

• Invited and plenary presentations from leading voices in the field.
