EPOC 2001 MEETING ANNOUNCEMENT
September 23 - 26, 2001
Stanford Sierra Camp Fallen Leaf Lake, California
The 48th annual Eastern Pacific Oceanic Conference (EPOC) will be held at the Stanford Sierra Camp, Fallen Leaf Lake, California from 23-26 September 2001. EPOC is a multidisciplinary meeting concerning research results from the eastern Pacific Ocean, including the equatorial region. EPOC provides an opportunity for scientists to meet and discuss scientific issues of the region, in a rural setting with few distractions. As is the custom at EPOC, the meeting times will be adjusted to allow time during the day for recreation, and to enjoy the surroundings.
Sessions are planned for:
-- sediment transport processes
-- inner-shelf processes and ocean-bay interactions
-- Lagrangian parcel trajectories, parcel retention and tracking
-- wind-driven transport at mesoscales
-- ecosystem dynamics, biophysical modeling and data assimilation
Four of these sessions will be half-day sessions of 15 minute talks (with 5 minutes for questions). The fifth will be a poster session held during the evening.
The abstract and registration deadline is August 13, 2001.
Anticipated registration costs will be $60 ($40 for students)
Anticipated costs for food and lodging at the Stanford Sierra Camp will be $141/$167 per person per night (dependent on occupancy per cabin). No partial stays are allowed. We will try to provide some accommodations for non-attending spouses/partners.
Abstract submission, registration, lodging and travel information will be handled via the web. An announcement regarding the web site (under development) will be sent shortly.

2001 Arctic Science Odyssey
September 12 - 15, 2001
Anchorage, Alaska
This session is to help SSL investigators share their research plans and results
with other investigators in Alaska and beyond. In part, this is in response to the
large amount of research has been initiated since SSL were listed. The
Arctic Science conference is being Chaired by Don Spalinger.
Russian-American Bering Sea Conference
Spring of 2001
Petropavlovsk-Kamchatski, Russia
The conference aims to unite and strengthen activities of wide sections of the population (first of all those of fishermen) of both nations to work out various types (including public) of joined control and management of living resources of the Bering Sea , which are common and indivisible into Russian and American but playing a vital role in determining way of life of people in coastal areas of two countries.
Everyone interested in the conference may take part in it (intramurally or extra-murally). Materials about extra-mural conference (starting with this appeal in the «Pacific Herald») will be released in our newspaper regularly as well as in the Internet in the Northern Pacific under "Hot line".

International Symposium on Climate, the Environment and Societies in the New Millennium
June 25 - 30, 2001
Jerusalem, Israel
The international Geographical Union, Commission of Climatology is planning to hold its annual meeting in Israel in the year 2001. In recent years the subject of climatic variability and possible climate change attracted much attention in both the scientific community as well as the executive branches of government.
The conference program will be based on five major sectors:
- Climate variability and climate changes
- Synoptic climatology and forecasting
- Climatology and Data base Construction
- Applied Climatology
- Climatology: Past, Present and Future

35th Congress of the Canadian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society
May 27 - June 1, 2001
Winnipeg, MB, Canada
The theme of 35th CMOS Congress is Extreme Weather. Papers are being solicited on all aspects of extreme weather events found globally such as severe thunderstorms, tornadoes, tropical cyclones, flooding, droughts, blizzards, etc. Particular emphasis should be placed on forecasting, impacts, warning and emergency preparedness, remote sensing, numerical, atmosphere-ocean interactions, and climate modeling and variability, as they relate to extreme weather.

The meeting format will include plenary sessions of invited and contributed talks on the daily session themes and contributed posters focusing on, but not limited to, the session topics.
Eighth International Meeting on Statistical Climatology
March 12 - 16, 2001
Luneburg, Germany
The purpose of the meetings is to bring together climatologists and statisticians, to exchange concepts and problems. Climatologists present statistical problems in climatology (including meteorology and related fields) and consider the methods that are
currently used to deal with these problems. Also, techniques tailored by climatologists for the specific needs of climatology are presented. Statisticians, on the other hand, present new, state-of-the art techniques developed within mathematical statistic
s and other scientific fields. By discussing the needs of climatology and the possibilities offered by modern statistics, synergetic effects are obtained, advancing the methodical basis of climatology and helping statistics to focus on relevant problems.
