  1. WELCOME: First VOCALS Meeting Second Rex Preparatory Workshop Second Modeling Workshop 17 - 20 March 2008, Boulder, CO www.eol.ucar.edu/projects/vocals

  2. VOCALS Targets • Unresolved issues in heat and nutrient budgets • Important links between clouds and aerosol • Influences on and from remote climates • Better simulation by atmosphere-ocean GCMs

  6. Goals of First VOCALS Meeting To conduct preparations for mission-critical tasks in VOCALS-REx; To coordinate modeling tasks; To build links between modeling and observational groups and ensure the best use is made of the REx data in model development; To review preliminary results of PreVOCA.
