Dear RegCNET colleagues,<br><br>Filippo Giorgi, Ashraf Zakey and I are convening a session entitled &quot;Regional Climate Modeling, including CORDEX&quot; (session number CL5.3) at the EGU General Assembly, to be held 7-12 April 2013 in Vienna, Austria.  In past years this has been an exciting and informative session, one of the top sessions within all of the EGU climate section.  We expect to continue in this tradition given the strong progress in many modeling groups and the surge in activity for CORDEX, IPCC AR5, and other projects.  The abstract deadline is 9 January 2012.<br>
<br>EGU provides some possibilities of limited financial support, mostly for young scientists and non-European scientists.  For information please see <a href="http://www.egu2013.eu/support_and_distinction/financial_support.html">http://www.egu2013.eu/support_and_distinction/financial_support.html</a> .  Support applications are due not later than 30 November 2012 so please act quickly if you intend to apply for this.<br>
<br>A link to the session announcement is given at the end of this message.  The EGU meeting is always interesting and Vienna is a beautiful location.  We look forward to seeing you there.<br><br>Regards,<br>Ray Arritt<br>
