on 13-18 April 2008, in Vienna, Austria.

Session Description:
The International Polar Year 2007-2008 was launched on 1 March 2007. It
represents the largest multidisciplinary effort after the previous
International Geophysical Year (1957-58). IPY involves researchers from
over 60 nations with the scope of increasing our knowledge of polar
regions and how they affect the Earth system. This session solicits
first results from ongoing research and plans for future activities.
Topics regarding the Cryosphere are particularly encouraged though
results from interdisciplinary activities are also more than welcome.
