date: Wed, 01 Feb 2006 16:54:28 +0000 from: Clare Goodess subject: Fwd: Indo-UK Collaboration to: p.jones@uea.ac.uk,k.briffa@uea.ac.uk,m.haylock@uea.ac.uk For information. Also attached is statistical downscaling proposal that we produced last week. All these individual proposals were subsumed into the 8 themes we identified at the end of the meeting. Julia, Kumar and Srini produced the proposal document and allocated focal points. CRU is down as focal point for theme 4 on downscaling methodologies and tailored products. We are also listed under Theme 1, understanding monsoon processes - I guess this mainly relates to the palaeo work.
