International Symposium on the Effects of Climate Change on the World's Oceans
FYI. Richard Feely asked me to share this information with you:
Could you send out the attached Symposium Flyer about the International Symposium on the Effects of Climate Change on the World's Oceans
Gijón, Spain (May 19 - 23, 2008) to the OCB community? There are several topics in the symposium that may be of interest to the community.
The website for the meeting can be found at: http://www.pices.int/meetings/international_symposia/2008_symposia/Climate_change/climate_background_3.aspx
