The IPA Executive Committee met for a face-to-face meeting just prior to the EGU 2014 in Vienna (27.04.2014).
The IPA ExCom made last preparations for the permafrost conference (EUCOP4, http://www.eucop4.org/) in June. Furthermore, they discussed upcoming IPA activities (e.g. new Action groups) and different updates (e.g. new website design) being published soon on the IPA website and social media plattforms (https://www.facebook.com/ipapermafrost, https://twitter.com/ipapermafrost).
