Arctic Coastal Dynamics Workshop, Oslo, Norway
2-5 December 2002

Arctic Coastal Dynamics (ACD) is a joint project of the International
Arctic Sciences Committee (IASC) and the International Permafrost
Association (IPA). Its overall objective is to improve our understanding
of circum-arctic coastal dynamics as a function of environmental
forcing, coastal geology and cryology and morphodynamic behavior.

Information on the latest development of ACD, including the main results
of the second ACD workshop (Potsdam, November 2001), had been circulated
in the 2nd ACD Newsletter in April 2002
http://www.awi-potsdam.de/www-pot/geo/acd-no3.html

The third IASC/IPA-sponsored ACD workshop, which will be hosted by the
Department of Physical Geography of the University of Oslo, will take
place in Oslo (Norway) from 2-5 December 2002. The workshop will
comprise presentations and discussions according to the ACD
Implementation Plan followed by a meeting of the ACD Steering Committee.

Limited funds are available for participation of non-Steering Committee
members. If you are interested in participating please email Volker
Rachold, include an extended abstract (max. 1000 words) and indicate if
you require funding to participate.

Deadline for abstracts and registration: 30 September 2002
