Our first newsletter of 2015 includes two great science features of CliC supported science, a large number of reports from various workshops over the past year, a few updates on new projects, a save the date announcement for our 2016 conference with ESA, and other things made possible with support from the Climate and Cryosphere Project. As always, we also include a list of our upcoming workshops and meetings, news from the cryosphere community and news from our sponsor WCRP and sister projects.
