The CEOP-HE Science Plan

High Elevations (HE) is an initiative within the Coordinated Energy and water cycle Observations Project (CEOP) of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) Global Energy and Water cycle Experiment (GEWEX).The Scientific Implementation Plan (SIP) of CEOP (http://www.eol.ucar.edu/projects/ceop/dm/new) identifies HE as a “regional study”. HE intends to be a concerted, international and interdisciplinary effort aimed at furthering knowledge on physical and dynamic processes at high elevations, which intends to contribute to global climate and water cycle studies. The goal of HE is to study multi-scale variability of energy and water cycles in high elevation areas while improving corresponding observations, modelling and data management. In this context, the term “high elevations” should be understood to include altitudes above the timberline, high plateaus, rough reliefs, low atmospheric pressure and low average temperature.

Purpose
The establishment of the HE initiative under the GEWEX/CEOP framework was formally proposed at a joint planning meeting held in Washington DC, USA, in March 2007. The HE Working Group was established in early 2008 following the constitution of a HE Steering Committee (SC) composed of international experts in high elevation studies, and the creation of the CEOP-HE Secretariat (ceop-he@evk2cnr.org ) at the Ev-K2-CNR headquarters in Bergamo, Italy. The project web-site http://www.ceop-he.org was implemented and updated with information and news about this Working Group.
