The deadline for the call for abstract contributions to the Earth System
Science Partnership (ESSP) Open Science Conference has been extended to
12 May 2006 from the previous deadline of 1 May 2006.
Abstract contributions are invited for the session on "Arctic
Environmental Change: a Cross-Disciplinary, Pan-Arctic Perspective in
the Context of Earth System Studies" at the ESSP Conference, to be held
at the Beijing International Convention Center in Beijing, China, 9-12
November 2006. The ESSP conference theme is "Global Environmental
Change: Regional Challenges" and will be aimed both at scientists and
others interested in the Earth System Science approach to global
environmental change research. This will also include members of the
broader global environmental change science and development communities,
including policy makers, practitioners, journalists, and members of the
private sector.
The arctic environmental change session will highlight new results
delineating spatial and temporal evolution of changes in the physical,
biogeochemical, and human domains of the arctic system gained from
observations, modeling studies, and traditional knowledge in the context
of the connection between the Arctic and the Earth System.
Session conveners are Peter Schlosser of Columbia University (USA), Leif
Anderson of the University at Goteborg (Sweden), Cecilie Mauritzen at
the Norwegian Meteorological Institute (Norway), and Monica Tennberg at
the University of Lapland (Finland).
Due to limited time within the parallel sessions for oral presentations,
most accepted abstracts will be scheduled as poster presentations, which
will serve as an integral part of the conference with dedicated time
slots.
