IGST, Washington DC, June 1-3, 2008

• Observations & Data • GSOP - Global Synthesis & Observations Panel• PAGES / Clivar WG (proxy data)• ETCCDI - CCI/Clivar/JCOMM Expert Team on Climate Change Detection & Indices

• Modelling • WGSIP – Working Group on Seasonal & InterAnnual Prediction • WGCM - JSC/Clivar WG on Coupled Modelling• WGOMD- WGCM/Clivar WG on Ocean Model Development

Clivar Cross-Cutting Panels

IGST, Washington DC, June 1-3, 2008

• GSOP - Global Synthesis & Observations Panel• ToRs cover wide field

• develop + implement strategy for synthesis of global ocean, atmosphere and coupled climate information through analysis efforts – initial focus on global ocean • define & fulfil Clivar needs for sustained obs• develop surface fluxes as required by Clivar …

• Stammer, Sloyan (co-chairs)• Assimilation: Haines, Weaver, Willis, Behringer, Fukasawa, + …

Some notes on most relevant groups (1)

IGST, Washington DC, June 1-3, 2008

• WGSIP – Working Group on Seasonal & InterAnnual Prediction

• ToR 2: develop appropriate data assimilation, model initialisation and forecast procedures for SIA prediction; includes observing system evaluation, ensemble & probabilistic models

• WGOMD- WGCM/Clivar WG on Ocean Model Developmen• co-chairs Steve Griffies, Helene Banks• good set of members & terms of reference
