The Sea Ice Prediction Network - Phase 2 (SIPN2) announces an open community meeting to be held during the 2019 American Geophysical Union (AGU) Fall Meetings in San Francisco, California. The Open Sea-Ice Community Meeting will convene on Tuesday, 10 December from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. (PST) in the ARCUS Arctic Community Meeting RoomMonterrey I — on the third floor of Hotel Nikko San Francisco located at 222 Mason Street, San Francisco, California.

This meeting is organized to promote knowledge exchange, collaboration, and networking among members of sea-ice research community. It will also include a brief overview of the 2019 Arctic sea ice/Sea Ice Outlook season.

A focus question for discussions during this meeting is: What does the research community need to provide more information at the regional scale?

All attendees are invited to participate in a fast-paced round-robin session to share information about related efforts and/or needs for input.

These one-minute updates should include:

  • The name of the project or effort,
  • A brief summary of the project/effort (in lay-person language),
  • A key highlight,
  • Any opportunities sought/offered for collaboration with other community members, and,
  • Contact information for sharing additional information.

A PowerPoint template is available for those who want to share information in a slide format — there will also be time for informal updates.

Please RSVP to indicate whether you plan to attend and/or provide a one-minute update.

Presentation slides should be sent to Betsy Turner-Bogren, ARCUS (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) by Tuesday, 3 December 2019.

A boxed lunch will be provided free of charge to meeting participants who RSVP by Wednesday, 27 November 2019.
