SECOND CIRCULAR FOR
PALSEA2 2015 Workshop: Data-Model Integration and Comparison
23-25 July
Atmosphere and Ocean Research Institute, University of Tokyo
Organising Committee: Glenn Milne, Ayako Abe-Ouchi, Yusuke Yokoyama, Anders Carlson, Andrea Dutton, Antony Long
This third workshop of the PALeo constraints on SEA level rise 2 (PALSEA2) working group builds upon and complements previous workshops by focusing on the integration of data and models to better understand and constrain past changes in sea level, the cryosphere and climate with a primary aim to produce more accurate projections of future changes in ice extent and sea level. More details on the aims and format of the workshop can be found in the first circular: http://people.oregonstate.edu/~carlsand/PALSEA2/PALSEA_2015_Meeting.html.
Confirmed keynote speakers: Jacqueline Austermann (Harvard University), Jeremy Fyke (Los Alamos National Laboratory), Bette Otto-Bliesner (National Center for Atmospheric Research), Axel Timmermann (University of Hawaii).
The workshop is scheduled immediately before the INQUA congress in Nagoya (27 July to 2 August; abstract deadline January 8th) which is only a few hours away by train, making it possible to attend both meetings during one trip to Japan. Some funds will be available to support the attendance of early career researchers.
We encourage abstracts from colleagues who reconstruct changes in sea level, the cryosphere and climate from the geological record and/or apply models to interpret the observations and better understand the processes responsible for these changes.
