date: Mon Aug 8 13:46:37 2005 from: Phil Jones subject: Section 3.4 to: trenbert@ucar.edu Kevin, Apart from DTR, the other main issue is whether to go with the new naming convention for atmospheric layers that CCSP has used in their latest diagrams. Still thinking about authorship. I can see your point. I reckon that you've done about 60% and me 40% so far, so you're well ahead. My normal rules would be that whoever writes most get lead authorship, but I want to see if I can do more with the SOD and later. If I don't do more we will likely (in the IPCC definition) switch when the SOD is submitted next year. It will depend on the type and number of comments we get and who has to do most to revise things. I am still planning to come to NCAR in February next year if it will be a useful use of time. I'd like to talk to a few other people, even get the issue raised at one of the CLAM meetings in NZ. It is probably up to us though. I've had a look at the hotels for the ChCh meeting. Copthorne (in Durham St) is NZ 129.38 excluding breakfast Crowne Plaza is 185.63 excluding breakfast (standard room) or 253.13 including breakfast (club class room) I like breakfast ! With one pound being 2.58NZD at the moment even the higher rate is only about 15% more than we paid in Beijing. I think I might indulge myself. UK taxes well spent! Both have hi-speed internet access at extra cost. Not clear if internet access is free with the higher room cost (probably isn't as they don't say). Unless you want to go for the Copthorne, let's go for the Crowne Plaza.
