The "Workshop on the Microstructure and Properties of Firn" will be held
on 10-11 March 2008, at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire.

The structure of firn, how this structure subsequently changes, and how
changes in the structure affect both the physical and chemical behaviors
of firn are not well understood. This workshop will bring together both
scientists and engineers who are recognized experts on firn and
newcomers to the field to discuss issues associated with understanding
firn and its behavior. The workshop will consist of invited talks,
substantial time for discussion, and contributed posters.

Abstracts are invited for oral and poster presentations, and travel
funds are available for students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior
faculty. Information is available at:
