Dear Stefan,

Many thanks for sending me your powerpoint slides re. Integration.  In preparing my paper and presentation for the abrupt meeting in 2 weeks time (I am talking at the RAPID kick-off meeting tomorrow), one thing I would like to do is to re-plot your two THC scenarios from your 1999 CC paper in terms of a magnitude/rate plot and compare them with the IPCC standards (see my rough hand-drawn version attached as graph jpg).  Your two scenarios I mean are in the attached ppt slide.

Would you be willing to let me either have the raw data behind these two plots - so I can calculate the decadal rate of change vs. magnitude myself - or else perhaps ask one of your team to extract these parameters for me from the data so I can plot them up?  I would need these data quite soon if possible, i.e., before Friday this week.

I also attach my latest draft of the paper for the Royal Society meeting - and if you have any comments on this I would very much welcome them in the next 2 weeks.  I still have some more work to do on this of course before publication.

Many thanks for your help and best wishes,

Mike
