I encourage you to submit abstracts to any of the above sessions. Also,
please feel free to forward this message to your colleagues that might
be interested in participating in the meeting. As a newly created
division, it is especially important that there is broad participation
in the EGU ESSI activities in these nascent years so that ESSI can
become a permanent part of the EGU program.

Again, I kindly remind you that the deadline for submitting abstracts is
Tuesday, 13 January.

Thank you,
