GLIMS Update: addendum to prev. msg

[Jeffrey S Kargel]

Dear Colleagues,

A suggestion was made to hold a possible informal GLIMS gathering in
association with the Fall AGU meeting in San Francisco in early December.
Depending on the response, possibly a half-day session organized during or
after AGU could include training in the use of GLIMS glacier analysis
tools.  It would be similar to more extensive training being considered for
the Nice (France) and possibly Valdivia (Chile) meetings discussed in the
previous email.  In addition, to be clear, we are tentatively planning on
holding a major GLIMS meeting in Norway in 2004.  If you have not already
responded to the previous message, you could perhaps fill out and return
this form:
