The CLIVAR/CliC/SCAR Southern Ocean Region Panel (SORP) is one of the panels involved in the call, and I am one of the current co-chairs.
Here are some specific details for the SORP part of this call:
* Information on what SORP does and the current membership are available through the following website: http://www.clivar.org/clivar-panels/southern
* SORP would welcome all self-nominations from Southern Ocean and Antarctic researchers, but particularly SORP would welcome nominations from any of the following disciplines, regions and groups that are under-represented (or not represented at all) on SORP at present (or after some members rotate off in this cycle):
- sea ice remote sensing;
- global climate modeling;
- sea-going chemical oceanography;
- researchers based in South America, developing countries, Scandinavia, the UK;
- researchers involved in SOOS, APECS, and other groups connected with SCAR, CliC, and CLIVAR;
