The purpose of the meeting is:
- to present and discuss new results on observations and modelling of the dynamics and mass budget of Arctic glaciers, including the Greenland ice sheet,
- to plan and coordinate field work on Arctic glaciers with the aim of using the available infrastructure and logistics in the most efficient way,
- to develop ideas for future projects and collaboration.
Participation is open to everyone interested in the Arctic glaciology. For planning purposes registration is recommended. Registration deadline is December 12, 2012. Note that we have applied for financial support of our meeting, but in case it is not granted we ask a registration fee of maximum of € 65. The exact registration fee will be published and communicated in November 2012.
