Dear RegCNET friends,

The Variability of the American Monsoon Systems (VAMOS) scientific panel of CLIVAR would like to make a compilation of regional modeling efforts relevant to the monsoon systems over the Americas.  If you are performing regional modeling of the North America, South America, or Central America / Caribbean domains, especially with a focus on monsoon circulations, I would be grateful if you could send me a very brief note with a mention of the nature of your research (such as domain, time period, scientific focus).

Note that in accordance with our CLIVAR charge we are compiling information on monsoon-relevant studies, and not a full list of all modeling over these continents.  We are interested mainly in ongoing efforts but mentions of recently completed studies also would be welcome.

Just a sentence or two is fine.  I may follow up with a request for more details.

Thanks for your help.

Ray Arritt
