Hello everyone,<br>
<br>
I invite you to join us on <b>11-noon </b>Friday <b>Feb 3 </b>in
the <b>MSRB auditorium</b> for the first in a series of research
presentations aimed at assisting in planning for SBC LTER's renewal
proposal. We have organized working groups around particular
research themes relevant to our project. Each working group will
present a synthesis of SBC activities pertaining to their theme and
lead a discussion on promising areas for future research. <br>
<br>
Tomorrow's presentation led by Craig Carlson will be on the coastal
carbonate system (the schedule for all the presentations is shown
below). I hope you can join us. <br>
<br>
