The European Geophysical Union general assembly, which will be held in
Vienna, Austria on 2-7 April 2006, contains a session entitled
"Instrumentation Related to the IPY".

This session is focused on the instrumentation and technologies that
will deliver the science, including sensors, instruments, power systems,
experiment set-up, and experiment coordination, as well as practical
aspects of operating in polar regions.

The session is meant to encourage presentations and discussions that
span different measurement approaches and different scientific
disciplines. Submissions to this session are particularly encouraged if
they discuss instrumentation developed specifically for the IPY or
demonstrate techniques of particular relevance to polar regions.

The abstract submission deadline is Friday, 13 January 2006. The final
presentation can be either a fifteen minute talk or a poster
presentation.
