[CRYOLIST] US CLIVAR Greenland Ice-Ocean Workshop report available online for comment

A draft report summarizing the international US CLIVAR-sponsored workshop on "Understanding the Response of Greenland's Marine-Terminating Glaciers to Oceanic and Atmospheric Forcing" is now available online at:
http://usclivar.org/sites/default/files/GRISO-2013-Workshop-Report-To-Lists.pdf

The report contains a detailed section on "How to move forward", which is intended as a basis for discussion on requirements to advance the science of glacier-fjord interactions in Greenland. As per an earlier email by William Wiseman to Cryolist on November 15, 2013, an open meeting organized by IARPC will be held to this end during AGU on Tuesday, December 10, 2013, from 6:00pm to 9:00pm, in Pacific Room J of the San Francisco Marriott Marquis, see:
