Message-ID: <435FF6F6.7040002@ucar.edu>

Dear CCSM working group members,

This year the Climate Variability Working Group will hold its winter
meeting jointly with the Polar Climate Working Group, February 6-7, 
2006, at the NCAR Mesa Lab in Boulder, CO.

We welcome your participation, especially (but not restricted to)
on the following topics of interest to both working groups:

Climate Studies
    polar climate variability
    abrupt climate events
    polar-tropical teleconnections
    influence of sea ice on other climate components

If you would like to give a short presentation about your CCSM-related 
work, please send us a title. We will organize the agenda around the 
topics you send.

Looking forward to seeing you there,

Clara Deser (cdeser@ucar.edu)
