IAMAS, IAPSO and IACS invite the international atmospheric,
oceanographic and cryospheric research community to MOCA-09, their Joint
Assembly on "Our Warming Planet," to be held 19-29 July 2009, in
Montreal, Quebec, Canada. More details can be found at:

Organizers of session J02, "Polar Regional Weather and Climate Modelling
(and Global Relevancy)," invite both numerical and observationally based
contributions:
(i) enhancing our understanding of the physical processes regulating
variability of environmental conditions (atmosphere, cryosphere, and
ocean) in the Polar Regions;
(ii) assessing models performance and their uncertainties using results
of the Model Intercomparison Projects (MIPs);
(iii) developing new models and analytical approaches allowing more
accurate reproduction of interaction in the system atmosphere-ice-ocean
or identifying teleconnections showing role of the Polar regions in the
global processes and vice-versa; and
(iv) improving parameterizations of the specific processes in the
atmosphere, ice, or ocean.
Discussions associated with data assimilation
and reconstructions and/or reanalysis of the climatic systems for the
Arctic and Antarctic are welcomed as well. More details on the scope of
this session can be found at:

The abstract submission deadline for this and all other sessions is 23
January 2009.
