Organizers of special Cryosphere Session C19 (co-sponsored by:
Atmospheric Sciences, Hydrology, Ocean Sciences), entitled "The Arctic
Atmosphere-Sea-Ice-Land-Hydrology Interface: Observations and Modeling,"
announce a call for abstracts. The session will be convened at the
American Geophysical Union (AGU) Fall Meeting, 13-17 December 2010 in
San Francisco, California.
The arctic sea ice cover is a sensitive indicator of the state of arctic
climate. Its recent accelerated decline is an example of global climate
warming and polar amplification. Altered sea ice regimes are the result
of and have influence on atmosphere-sea-ice-land-hydrology feedbacks of
importance to the whole pan-arctic climate system. Such processes need
to be better understood in order to advance the knowledge and prediction
of arctic climate change. This session will focus on impacts of melting
sea ice and on interactions between two or more components of the arctic
climate system. Abstracts presenting observational and model results on
such processes and their basin-scale, long-term effects are invited.
The abstract submission deadline for this and all other sessions is
Thursday, 2 September 2010 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-fm10.abstractcentral.com/index.jsp.
