Dear Colleagues,
Please consider attending the AGU Meeting of the Americas in Foz do Iguacu, Brazil, during 8-13 August 2010 and submitting an abstract in the following session:
A22: South America Monsoon System: Past, Present and Future
Description: The South American Monsoon System (SAMS) plays a fundamental role in driving the atmospheric circulations and water and energy balances in the tropics and subtropics. Water and agricultural resources for millions of people in South America depend on the intensity, timing and duration of SAMS. This session will accept presentations related to observational and modeling studies of SAMS in three major themes: 1) past variability of SAMS through paleoclimate records and modeling, 2) SAMS in the present climate and 3) projections of future changes in SAMS Sponsor: Atmospheric Science CoSponsor: Hydrology, Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology Meeting information and abstract submission : <www.agu.org/meetings/ja10/index.php>
