<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;
font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; color:

– they have to do a set of things to keep the monitoring programs going and then they work in their science. If she came down, she would have to be on the limno team and provide that support. But, this seems like a lot of additional work to try to add in
if she’s also on the limno team… I think it’s a reasonable response that you sent to her, John. I don’t know how this will shake out in our discussions in March, but if she doesn’t get her GRFP funded and we don’t give her a slot, April will be the deadline
for her and her advisor to submit their own full blown proposal. I think we need to make a judgement about whether this is mission creep or not. If it can be linked to our MCM4 hypotheses, then it’s justifiable to bring her down and do this work. If not,
then we’re taking the place of NSF by facilitating her research and that’s not a position we want to be in, particularly with the level of scrutiny that’s likely to be associated with the proposed work.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

other colleagues to collect samples from Fryxell. I never said that I would do this and anyone I take has to be involved with all limno runs and sample analysis in McMurdo. Note that their proposed work will require a transect of sediment cores and water samples
through Fryxell. This will require environmental paperwork showing that the cores will be collected cleanly, request for a corer, and meter resolution collection of water samples at each site (note that we only get a freshwater lens below the ice when there
is streamflow—most of the time the ionic strength is greater just below the ice due to freeze segregation.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">My name is Nora Richter, I am a first year graduate student in the Brown-MBL program and I am being co-advised by Yongsong Huang and Linda Amaral-Zettler for my thesis. Yongsong mentioned that he contacted you
this past month about possible fieldwork options in Antarctica, and potentially collaborating with you and your team during the 2016-2017 field season.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">This year I intend to apply for travel funds to support my research at McMurdo, and I would also be willing to assist your research group in the 2016-2017 field season if I am able to go. James W. Head is also
part of my advising committee and has done work at McMurdo in the past; he has agreed to assist me with any additional planning. I have also conducted field work in the past in Svalbard, Greenland, and the Swiss Alps (I attached a copy of my CV). </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;">I recently applied for the NSF graduate student fellowship with my proposed project in Antarctica (see attached). Briefly, I intend to analyze haptophytes and alkenones from Lake Fryxell to assess species assemblages,
alkenone production under extreme conditions, and use hydrogen and carbon isotopes to more accurately track changes in glacial melt. I am currently working on analyzing samples I received from Rachael Morgan-Kiss and Sarah Spaulding to better inform my project
and hypotheses.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
