Fall AGU Town Hall Meeting -- Antarctic Climate Evolution
Antarctic Climate Evolution (ACE) is an international initiative of SCAR (Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research) that promotes the exchange of data and ideas between research groups focusing on the evolution of Antarctica's climate system and ice sheet.
Fall AGU Town Hall Meeting -- Antarctic Climate Evolution
Moscone West, Room 3009, Thursday, December 13, 2007 @ 1930-2030h
Come join your friends and meet new colleagues at the ACE Town Hall Meeting. Refreshments provided!
Antarctic Climate Evolution (ACE) is an international initiative of SCAR (Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research) that promotes the exchange of data and ideas between research groups focusing on the evolution of Antarctica's climate system and ice sheet. ACE facilitates scientific exchange between the modeling and data acquisition communities for the purposes of project development and hypothesis testing. The goals of the program are to assess the climate and glacial history of Antarctica, to identify the processes
that govern Antarctic change, and to understand how Antarctic climate change feeds back on the rest of the globe.
ACE welcomes new participants. This town hall meeting will inform the community about ACE opportunities during and beyond the IPY, including major new drilling efforts through ANDRILL and IODP, as well as through ice sheet and climate modeling programs.
