<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We are requesting your input to develop the next generation LTER climate and hydrology data products, specifically with respect to the upgrade of ClimDB/HydroDB. As there are many
options of approaching this, we need to learn what would be most useful to the LTER research community. Please consider the following questions:</span><br>

<li><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Would you be interested in participating in an EDI organized workshop (Spring 2019) envisioning the next generation LTER climate and hydrology data products?</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Do you use climate data from other networks besides the LTER data repository and ClimDB/HydroDB (e.g., NADP, NCEI, USGS, NWS coop stations, CUAHSI, PRISM)?</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Are you using data and/or graphs from ClimDB/HydroDB in your research, synthesis efforts, and/or teaching?</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sites are currently providing daily climate data, typically for multiple stations, which are available through the ClimDB interface. What processed data are of interest to your
group? Would you be interested in finer temporal resolution data, and what is the finest resolution of interest?</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The current user interface is based on antiquated architecture and must be replaced. Do you have an opinion on the features the new interface should offer? If yes, please elaborate.</span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span></li></ol>
