Dear Colleague,
We are convening a special session at the Fall AGU 2001 Meeting in San
Francisco, 10-14 December 2001 entitled:
Session IP05 - Ice: From Molecules to Ice Sheets
(A Special Session in Honor of W. Barclay Kamb)
Abstract Deadline by mail: 30 August 2001
Abstract Deadline for electronic submissions: 6 September 2001, 1400UTC
Special Session Abstract:
In the course of his productive career Barclay Kamb has studied an
unusually broad spectrum of glaciological topics ranging in scale from
molecular-level ice physics to ice-sheet dynamics. Through fieldwork,
laboratory experiments, and modeling he has tackled pivotal
glaciological problems, such as ice crystallography and phase changes,
ice rheology, subglacial water drainage, glacier motion, surges, and ice
streaming. In his honor, we solicit contributions on these and other
glaciological topics. All relevant contributions are welcome, but we are
particularly interested in contributions that will either review recent
advances in a glaciological sub-discipline or will integrate some
current glaciological developments into a vision of exciting future
direction(s) in glaciology, or both.
Reflecting the broad impact that Barclay Kamb's work had on geosciences,
the session will be co-sponsored by several AGU sections (H, HGC, MRP,
NG, SIP, T).
