A pan-GEWEX plenary session is planned for the Monterey pan-GASS workshop. This session will revolve around 3 themes:

1. Energy & Water cycle at regional scales
   1. covering natural and managed environments
   2. quantifying the different fluxes and reservoirs (with uncertainties)
   3. in which regions will closure point to emerging processes
   4. monthly to multidecadal and basins to continental
   5. connection to the carbon cycle
2. km-scale observations and modelling of Earth system
   1. from current resolution to km-scale: what are the structural changes
   2. processes and reservoirs resolved at km-scale
   3. confronting models and observations at high resolution
   4. diurnal scales and extremes (gradients, patterns, intensities)
   5. impact on biosphere and carbon cycle
3. Mesoscale organisation of convection
   1. Impact on water and energy fluxes
   2. role of surface-atmosphere processes interactions
   3. role of extremes 

Satellite agencies representation will be on Tuesday/Wednesday.
