The workshop will take place
on Monday and Tuesday, 24-25 April. These will be full working
days. We anticipate some type of excursion on Sunday (23 April).
Here is an overview with a detailed agenda below.
Day 1
A
plenary session with presentations on
the IGOS partnership, the Theme development process, and status. Presentations on
observational
capabilities and requirements, and key issues will be given by participants.
Day 2
Summary of observational capabilities and requirements by Theme Report section leads. Parallel
breakout sessions to compare and contrast the information presented on
the first day (and at the Asia CliC meeting) with that contained
in the Theme Report draft, and to reconcile
differences.
A printable (PDF) version of the detailed agenda is available here.
