! 14 members from 12 nations ! New members from CliC ! Future: new member in atmospheric science?
! To serve as a forum for the discussion and communication of scientific advances in the understanding of climate variability and change in the Southern Ocean.
! To advise CLIVAR, CliC, and SCAR on progress, achievements, new opportunities and impediments in internationally-coordinated Southern Ocean research.
! 1. Facilitate progress in the development of tools and methods required to assess climate variability, climate change and climate predictability of the ocean-atmosphere-ice system in the Southern Ocean.
! 2. Identify opportunities and coordinated strategies to implement these methods, spanning observations, models, experiments, and process studies.
! 3. Provide scientific and technical input into international research coordination, collaborating as required with other relevant programs, including the Southern Ocean Observing System (SOOS).
! 4. Monitor and evaluate progress in Southern Ocean research, and identify gaps.
! 5. Enhance interaction between the meteorology, oceanography, cryosphere, geology, biogeochemistry and paleoclimate communities with an interest in the climate of the Southern Ocean.
! 6. Work with relevant agencies on the standardization, distribution and archiving of Southern Ocean observations.
! CLIVAR Achievements report ◦ Content overview ◦ Modeling ◦ Observing system ◦ Process experiment
