   Hi Jean,
   no problem, I think Phil and I have it all sorted out. Sorry I won't be there to see you
   this time,

   Dear Phil, Dear Mike,

   I feel that I come too late in the discussion, but it's really fine for me.

           Thanks a lot            Jean

      Mike,
         I didn't read it properly! I see the Jan 25 deadline. I was looking
      at a Feb date which is for room and scheduling options.
        So I will let you enter the session on Monday. I'll send
      something over the weekend or first thing Monday, once I've
      been through them. There a number of issues which relate to
      last year and who got orals/posters then.
         The other thing is for a room for 250+ people. If we have a medallist
      we want more. We had 500 last year (due to Ray) but we did keep
      most for the next few talks. We still had about ~200 for the session after
      Ray's.
      Cheers
      Phil

     Hi Phil,
     thanks--sounds fine, I'll let you enter the session then.
     I thought they wanted it sooner though (before Jan 25). I'm forwarding that email, maybe
     I misunderstood it,

      Mike,
         Have printed out the abstracts. Looks like many reasonable ones.
      Pity we only have the limited numbers.  I can put the session in
      once we're agreed. It seems as though we can't do that till mod-Feb.
         I've contacted Gerrit and Gerard to see if we have to accommodate
      a medalist talk for the Hans Oeschger prize.
      Cheers
      Phil

     Hi Phil,
     thanks, that sounds fine to me. I'll await further word from you after you look this
     over again, and I'll await feedback from Jean. No rush, I'm hoping to finalize the
     session on Monday.
     The Vinther et al stuff sounds very interesting--I'm looking forward to hearing more,
     sorry I won't actually be at EGU.
     talk to you later,
     mike

      Mike, Jean
         Thanks. I'll probably go with Vinther et al for the third invited. Not just
      as I'm on the author list, but because he'll show (will submit soon) that
      the Greenland borehole records (Dorthe Dahl Jensen) are winter proxies.
      Has implications for the Norse Vikings - as the summer isotopes (which
      unfortunately respond much to Icelandic than SW Greenland temps) don't
      show any Medieval warming.
          Jean probably knew all this. The bottom line is that annual isotopes are
      essentially winter isotopes as they vary 2-3 times as much as summer ones.
      If the squeezing of the layers doesn't distort anything this implies longer series
      are very winter half year dominant.

          I mostly agree with the other orals, but I have to look at a few. There is one
      on the Millennium project (EU funded) which Jean knows about. Might have to give
      this an oral slot.
       Jean - any thoughts?  I assume you're happy to chair a session.
      I also need to check whether we will have to talk a medallist talk? No
      idea who?
      Cheers
      Phil

     Dear Phil and Jean,
     We got an impressive turnout this year for our session, 37 total submitted abstracts.
     Please see attached word document. Based on the rules described by EGU below, I suggest
     we have 2 oral sessions (consisting of morning and afternoon), with a total of  10 oral
     presentations w/ 7  of those being regular 15 minutes slots and 3 of those invited 25
     minute slots. The other 27 abstracts will be posters, conforming w/ the fairly harsh
     limits imposed by EGU on oral presentations.
     My suggestions would be as follow:
     Invited Presentations (25 minutes):
     1 Ammann et al
     2 Hughes et al
     3 either Emile Geay et al OR Vinther et al OR Crespin et al (preferences?)
     Other Oral (15 minutes):
     4. 3 other of either Emile Geay et al OR Vinther et al OR Crespin et al
     5. 3 other of either Emile Geay et al OR Vinther et al OR Crespin et al
     6. Riedwyl et al
     7. Graham et al
     8. Smerdon et al
     9. Kleinen et al
     10. Jungklaus et al
     Posters:
     All others

     Please let me know what you think. If these sound good to you, I'll go ahead and arrange
     the session online,
     Mike

     Dear convener and co-convener,
     Thanks a lot for your effort for sucessful sessions at the EGU 2008.
     >From our experience of the last years, there will be an
     oral-to-poster ratio of about 1:2 (e.g. ~33% of the contributions can
     get
     a talk). This means that for a complete session, you need 18
     contributions. 18:3 * 15min = 1.5h = 1 block
     For those of you who are under the number of 18, there are several
     options:
     1) a pure poster session
     2) merging with a related session
     3) the contributions will go to the open session (CL0)
     4) if you are just below 18, you may manage to get late contributions
     within the next days (please no dummy posters)
     Please tell me which option do you like most (email to
     [116]andrea.bleyer@awi.de).
     In case 2), please contact the respective conveners in advance.
     The session could be also from other divisions (BG, OS, AS, IS, ..).
     In case of merging, you may speak with the persons whether it would be
     appropiate to modify the title of the new session or to have a combined
     name with both titles.
     I think the general rule is that the convener of the merged session is
     the person with the bigger session.
     Kind regards
     Gerrit
