Description
Summary:The strategy has been prepared by Steve Rintoul on behalf of the CLIVAR/CliC/SCAR Southern Ocean Implementation Panel. The panel recognised a number of common threads and opportunities for synergy in the submissions to the ICSU IPY Planning Group. The panel volunteered to draft a strategy for integration of individual IPY proposals in order to stimulate development of a coherent and coordinated IPY program in the southern hemisphere. The strategy is based on input from a wide cross-section of the community who submitted ideas to the IPY planning group and provided direct input to the panel (contributors are listed in the appendix).
