Session Description:
Key uncertainties remain regarding the future reaction of climate, ice
sheets, and the carbon cycle to anthropogenic greenhouse gas forcing.
Paleoclimatic reconstructions offer a framework against which climate,
ice sheet, and carbon cycle models can be tested. This session aims at
strengthening the interactions between these various communities.
This session is being convened by: Eric Rignot (IACS), Jonathan Bamber
(IAMAS), and Thierry Fichefet (IAPSO). The abstract submission deadline
for this and all other sessions is Friday, 23 January 2009.
