ACTION: Notice of meeting.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The USGS-CCSP Committee for Synthesis and Assessment Product 
1.2: Past Climate Variability and Change in the Arctic and at High 
Latitudes will meet in the Hampton Inn in Lakewood, Colorado on July 
12-13, 2007.
    Agenda: The goal of the meeting is to produce a detailed outline of 
the structure of the Synthesis and Assessment Product and to identify 
key areas of input and to create a list of potential contributing 
authors for these areas. Records under consideration will include, but 
not necessarily be limited to, paleo-records from tree rings, ice 
cores, lake sediments, pollen records, distributions of marine and 
terrestrial organisms as well as isotopic indicators measured on them, 
and the temporal evolution of terrestrial depositional and erosional 
environments. The agenda will focus on the key topics of the past 
record of change in Arctic sea ice extent, in the status of the 
Greenland ice sheet, paleo-temperature and paleo-precipitation records, 
and past intervals of rapid climate change. The meeting is open to the 
public at the times listed below. Pre-registration is required to 
attend. Contact the Designated Federal Officer (DFO) at the address 
given below by July 9, 2007 to pre-register and receive a copy of the

Thursday, July 12, 2007 between 11 a.m. and noon. Public statements 
will be limited to 3 minutes per person. For scheduling reasons, intent 
to make a public statement must be established at the time of pre-
