Happy 2007!
Well, the year of CALMet VII has arrived! Things have been moving forward quite nicely. We have about 15 submissions so far, but many more have been promised, including many of your own. Hoping in the next few weeks we'll see that number grow substantially. Please send your submissions as soon as possible. We are yet to see an update on ASMET or other training topics from Niger from Emmanuel, more info from UNEMET or other Brazilian activities, and Ian Mills and Eumetcal/Intralibrary processes or activities. We all hope you folks can still make contributions!
We now have a full set of Keynote Speakers who have graciously agreed to participate. These are:
SHEN Xiaonong, Director General, Department of Human Resources and Education,
China Meteorological Administration (CMA), Director General, CMA Training Centre.
Dr. Ion Draghici, Director WMO Education and Training
Dr. Andrey Belotserkovsky, Pro-Rector, The Russian State Hydrometeorological University, Vice-Chairman of the Academic Association of Universtities for Hydrometeorology
Ian Bell, Bureau of Meteorology Training Centre, Australia (retired), also lead instructor for WMO Regional Training Seminars
On the final day of CALMet, we also plan a panel discussion on the Past, Present, and Future of CALMet, to be led by Dr. Joe Lamos (COMET), chair of the CAL Working Group and Carola Sundius (FMI).
Other special sessions may be in the works. If you have suggestions, please let the group know. Vesa and Fan Hong, if you have other things to add that I may have forgotten, please let us know.
Cheers everyone,
Pat Parrish
