iLEAPS is the land-atmosphere core project of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP). The scientific goal of iLEAPS is to provide understanding how interacting physical, chemical and biological processes transport and transform energy and matter through the land-atmosphere interface. iLEAPS encourages international and crossdisciplinary collaboration, particularly involving scientists from the developing countries.

Due to update and new modules in the iLEAPS Joomla-based website, some links may not be available. We are working on getting all the links active again.

iLEAPS is organizing a Science Conference on 24-28 August 2009 and an Early Career Scientists Workshop 20-22 August 2009, prior to the main conference. Both events are in Melbourne, Australia.

The iLEAPS Science Conference 24-28 August 2009 is organized parallel to GEWEX Scientific Conference. The parallel conferences' website  includes basic information (some sections will be updated in due course), the flyer is available here. More detailed information on submission of abstracts and registration will be posted shortly at the parallel conferences' website,  also at the iLEAPS Melbourne events website.The DEADLINE FOR ABSTRACTS is 15 MARCH 2009.

A special website for the iLEAPS events in Melbourne has been established. You can also go straight to the Early Career Scientists Workshop website at http://www.ileaps.org/ecsw/.
