First MACC-II General Assembly

From 27 February until 2 March 2012, ECMWF will host the final General Assembly of the Monitoring Atmospheric Composition and Climate (MACC) project combined with the first General Assembly of its follow-on project MACC-II. The aim of the meeting is to review and present the achievements of MACC as well as the plans for the coming year for MACC-II.

This will be achieved through a set of parallel meetings on individual themes as well as cross-cutting sessions on Monday and Tuesday, followed by plenary presentations and discussions on Wednesday and Thursday. Friday will be devoted to meetings of MACC-II project's Advisory and Management Boards.
