Dear Dr. Hulme,
   my name is Caspar Ammann. I'm working as a Ph.D. student for Raymond
Bradley at the University of Massachusetts. He told me to collect Dust Veil
Index data from the time period 1985 to 1995. I knew that H. Lamb was
updating his pubicated data of early seventies in Climate Monitor, but I
could not found any more recent data since 1983 (Climate Monitor 12, No. 3). 
   So my questions: are you still updating DVI at the Climatic Research
Unit? If yes, would you be able to send me yearly N-Hemispheric values
1985-1995? If not, do you know, where I could get them?
	
Thanks a lot for your help already!
	
Sincerely,
	
Caspar Ammann
