We'd like to hear about new work using CCSM and progress on previously reported projects. The following list of potential topics is not meant to be exclusive: climate studies polar climate variability abrupt climate events polar-tropical teleconnections influence of sea ice on other climate components model/parameterization improvements shortwave radiation and albedo cloud physics turbulent fluxes over ice snow model sea ice ridging slab ocean model configuration for CCSM land ice software developments other curiosities ice model parameter sensitivities excess ice in the FV model CSIM test suite CSL proposals If you would like to give a short presentation about your work, please send a title to us. We will organize the agenda around the topics you send.

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) Sumant Nigam (nigam@atmos.umd.edu) CVWG co-chairs
