In March 2005, the Board of Governors, created an ad hoc Climate and Ecosystems Committee (Table 1). Their assignment was to write a short draft proposal on Climate and Ecosystems for the California Current System (CCS) for review by NOAA headquarters climate and ecosystems staff. The review of the draft proposal and a general discussion of the long term needs for observing and modeling the entire CCS, were the objectives of a meeting held on June 6, 2005 in La Jolla Ca. See the minutes for a list of participants, the agenda, and highlights of the meeting.
