  4. Recommendations Made at CLTCM Ninth Meeting (Jan 15/16, 2003) • Clarify Terms of Reference of CLTCM Relative to Climate & Global Change Working Group - CLTCM to focus on observing system and data management • C&GC Working Group to focus on climate research 2) Developing and Implementing an Optimal Observing System - Evaluate new observing systems components and improvements in an integrated manner

  5. Actions Proposed for SAB Approval at This Time • Rotate Working Group Chairmanship to Mark Abbott • Change Name from “Council on Long-term Climate Monitoring” to “Climate Monitoring Working Group” • Approve Revision of Terms of Reference to More Accurately Reflect Complementary Relationship with “Climate & Global Change Working Group”

  6. Next Climate Monitoring WG Meeting • Chicago, Illinois, Sept 17 (p.m.), 18, 19 (a.m.) • Joint Session with C&GC Working Group Sept 17 (p.m.) • Proposed Agenda Items To Be Discussed in Joint Session • Scientific Data Stewardship and Comprehensive Large-Array Stewardship System (CLASS) • Adaptation of Model Data for Use in Assessments • Sentinel Science Teams

  7. Next Climate Monitoring WG Meeting (continued) Proposed Agenda Items, Sept 18-19 • Rotation of Working Group Chair • Revisions to Terms of Reference • Review of Action Items from Ninth Meeting of CLTCM • Continuation of Discussion of Joint Session Topics (as necessary) • Pacific Plus Observing System • Reactive and Indirect Greenhouse Agents (gases and aerosols) • NPOESS Preparatory Project (NPP) Science Team • NWS Radiosonde Replacement System • GOES-R Data Requirements • Office of Ocean Observations • Tropospheric-Surface Temperature Reconciliation • Workshop on Ongoing Analysis of the Climate System • Recommendations for Consideration by SAB
