Papers are invited for Session C13: "Cryospheric Climate Data Records" being convened at the AGU Fall Meeting on 15-19 December 2008 in San
Francisco, California.
Session Description:
The generation of cryospheric climate data records (CDRs) is a critical step in providing the necessary information for scientists, decision-makers, and stakeholders to make adaptive choices that could improve the nation's resiliency to environmental change and variability, maintain our economic vitality, and improve the safety and comfort of U.S. citizens. This session will bring together recent efforts in the development of CDRs over Arctic and Antarctic ocean, ice, and terrestrial surfaces, including snow cover, sea and land ice, melt onset, surface temperature, sea surface temperature, etc. Contributions are encouraged covering the full spectrum of CDR development and use, including initial formulation of algorithms, validation of CDRs, and use of CDRs for scientific inquiry.
