If you would like to be nominated then you need to urgently complete a nomination form and return it to the IPCC by the 16th January at the very very latest. However, we would very strongly advise that you return your completed form to the defra contact, Ross Jones, by 12am on the 14th january. The letter from defra is attached: this provides a link to where the nomination form can be downloaded. It is not a lot of work but basically requires details from your CV and an indication of where you would wish to contribute: 1) To help with this please find a further attachment (Possible IPCC authors from Tyndall.rtf) that provides a summary of where each of you might contribute and in what capacity. This list is purely indicative and it is entirely up to you, of course, how you fill the form in (although nominating yourself for more than two chapters is maybe not a good idea in most cases). 2) The person nominating you will be the UK IPCC focal point, so you fill the form in as the person being nominated. 3) Then send the form back to Ross Jones at defra directly, and NOT to me or anyone else in Tyndall (Ross Jones' email address is included in the attached letter). 4) If you have already completed a nomination form and sent it to Ross Jones at defra then you can of course disregard this email. 5) If you do NOT want to be nominated to take part in the next IPCC assessment report then you do not need to tkae any action on this email. 6) If you know of someone else in your institution/UK network who you strongly feel should be nominated, then simply get them to fill in the form as well and return it by the same deadline.
