<p><span style="color:black; font-family:Arial,sans-serif">Second, Suzanne and Stevan are preparing the annual IMC committee report for the LTER. They would like input from the IMC regarding a question that is being asked of all LTER committees. Please give
some thought to the question pasted below regarding network coordination. We will spend a few minutes at the outset of the water cooler to discuss your ideas.<br>
<br>
<b>Do you see specific opportunities for improving network coordination (or coordination with other networks) that are of interest to your committee? If so, are there specific ways that the network leadership (PIs, LNO) could support your committee to realize
those opportunities?</b></span></p>
