Call for Contributions

Your contributions

The purpose of the workshop is to identify gaps in the technical emerging work on IR for Climate Impact, including undertheorized and underspecified issues related to each of the four areas of focus. We aim to create actionable technical research agendas for each of them. To this end, we welcome technical contributions and position papers as extended abstracts (2-4 pages) on a wide range of topics related to information retrieval for climate impact, including:

• Information needs in climate impact,

• Search and analysis of formal literature for climate impact,

• Search and analysis of informal publications for climate impact, and

• Resources to support IR for climate impact

Recent work on very large-scale systematic reviews, such as https://doi.org/10.1038/s41558-021-01168-6, on climate language models, such as https://arxiv.org/pdf/2401.09646.pdf, and on geolocated literature with climate information such as https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.06817 is obviously relevant.

How to submit

Abstracts submitted to MANILA24 should be in English, in PDF, and formatted using the standard ACM sigconf format (using \documentclass[sigconf, natbib=true, anonymous=false]{acmart}). The review process is single-blind. MANILA24 uses EasyChair to handle submissions: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=manila24.
