Dear Hans,

at the IPCC Lead Author meeting taking presently place in Christchurch, 
NZ, it was suggested that I ask you to provide us with curves such 
as in your Science paper but showing the glacier retraet only instead of 
the reconstructed temperature. The retreat curves would fit into the 
Chapter 4.5 on "Observations: Changes in Glaciers and ice Caps". It was 
agreed that the temperature curve such as published will be handled by the 
Palaeoclimate team in Chapter 6. I would be glad if you could also send me
the numbers in order to allow me to adapt the figure layout to the general
Chapter design. If it makes it easier for you, you can also provide me 
with the numbers only and I can compile the respective graph.

I hope this does not cause to much work for you and I look forward to keep 
in touch. I will be visiting some of the NZ glaciers together with Peter 
Lemke next week and will be back in Karthaus for Christmas.

Best wishes and looking forward to see you in Obergurgl,
Georg
