This draft will be presented to a plenary meeting of government delegates to the IPCC in November for approval -- and may change somewhat in the process. If/when I receive the draft outlines for the reports of Working Groups I and III I will forward those as well. If you are interested in being an author or review editor for the IPCC 4th assessment report and have not yet informed me, please do so and send me the following: * A short biography (half page) that * highlights your expertise and experience relevant to the IPCC reports, * identifies the Working Group (I, II or III) for which you wish to be considered, * identifies the topics/chapter(s) of the WG report to which you would like to contribute * identifies the role(s) for which you wish to be considered: Coordinating Lead Author, Lead Author, Contributing Author, or Review Editor * Your full curriculum vitae I will forward these materials to the Technical Support Unit of the relevant working group. A formal request to governments to nominate persons to be authors and review editors will be made by IPCC in November. Nomination by your government is not required for you to be invited to be an author. But it would increase the likelihood. To increase your chances of receiving an invitation, you should contact the IPCC focal point in your country to inform him/her of your interest and qualifications and to request that your government nominate you. PLEASE CIRCULATE THIS EMAIL TO OTHER MEMBERS OF YOUR AIACC PROJECT TEAM! Kind regards, Neil Leary Attachment Converted: "c:\eudora\attach\1._WG2_Outline.doc"
