Organizers of Special Session C02, "Cryospheric Climate Data Records,"
announce a call for abstracts. The session will be convened at the
American Geophysical Union (AGU) Fall Meeting, 14-18 December 2009, in
San Francisco, California.
Cryospheric climate data records (CDRs) are a critical step in providing
information to scientists, decision-makers, and stakeholders to enable
them to make adaptive choices about the environment. This session will
bring together recent efforts in the development of CDRs over
cryospheric regions (e.g., snow cover, sea and land ice, melt onset,
surface temperature). Contributions are encouraged covering the full
spectrum of CDR development and use, including initial formulation of
algorithms, validation, and use for scientific inquiry. Organizers
especially welcome contributions that focus on the issues and
difficulties inherent in developing cryospheric CDRs.
The abstract submission deadline for this and all other sessions is
Thursday, 3 September 2009, at 11:59 pm Eastern Daylight Time. To submit
an abstract, you must enter the first author's current AGU member ID and
password at: http://agu-fm09.abstractcentral.com/.
