Joint SOLAS/IMBER/IOCCP Carbon (SIC) Synthesis Meeting (14-16 Sept. 2011, UNESCO, Paris, France)

The Ocean Carbon Cycle at a time of change: Synthesis and Vulnerabilities

Synopsis

This meeting aims to bring together scientists working on global ocean carbon synthesis projects, such as CARINA, PACIFICA, GLODAP2, SOCAT, etc, but is open to all other scientists who are interested in developing an integrated view of how the ocean carbon cycle has changed in recent decades. Of interest are data syntheses, analyses and modeling studies focusing on air-sea CO₂ fluxes, changes in ocean surface and interior carbon properties, and how the changes in these realms are connected to each other.

Location

The meeting will take place at the UNESCO headquarters: Salle II, 7 Place Fontenoy, UNESCO Headquarters, Paris, France.
