cc: Rob Swart date: Thu, 11 Sep 1997 09:47:58 +0200 from: Nebojsa NAKICENOVIC subject: Re: IPCC meeting in NL to: Mike Hulme Dear Mike, I am glad that you will be able to join us on Thursday evening and on Wednesday. This message is also forwarded to Rob so that he knows about your travel plans. There is room for your talk/comments in the draft agenda on Wednesday mornings if this suits you. I will include you in the next draft. Perhaps you know that Steve Schneider joined us during our last meeting and briefed the participants on on-going work on climate change and what role temissions scenarios have in driving the climate models. Your work on including more realistic treatment of emissions/forcing by considering both GHGs and sulfur aerosols in simple and global climate models would be of great interest to our group. Our timing is to have a first set of tentative (``template'') scenarios ready within six months or so. The final, refined set would be ready in early 1999, but for your purposes it might not appear to be too different from the tentative set. Thank you for joining us.
