Dear Colleagues,

        We are pleased to attach herewith the programme for the 4th GEOSS Asia-Pacific Symposium, Bali, Indonesia, 10-12 March 2010, as well as the preliminary agendas for the four working sessions:        

1. Asia Pacific Climate Variability and Monitoring Capacity

2. Hydrometeorological-Related Disaster and Water Resources Management

3. Forest Carbon Tracking

4. Asia-Pacific Biodiversity Observation Network (AP-BON).

        We expect this Symposium, which has already attracted more than 200 registered participants, to be a major milestone on the road to the Beijing Ministerial Summit.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Bali.

  With best regards,

    José Achache
