Dear Sir or Madam

   The Royal Society is organising a two day conference on 22-23 February 2010 which may be of
   interest to you. Please feel free to pass this on to staff and students within your
   department who may be interested.

Synopsis

   2010 marks the fiftieth anniversary of Keeling's first publication of atmospheric CO[2]
   measurements. This meeting discusses the use of long-term monitoring to understand
   greenhouse gases in the Earth system. New scientific advances promise regional audit of
   emissions, assessment of uptakes, and better understanding of controlling and feedback
   processes. The meeting will assess these, shaping the agenda for the next 20 years.
