Hello everyone,<br>
<div class="moz-forward-container"> <br>
I invite you to join us on <b>11-noon </b>Friday <b>Feb 17 </b>in
the <b>MSRB auditorium</b> for the third 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 John Melack will focus on sources,
fluxes and utilization of nitrogen in the coastal zone (the
schedule for all the presentations is shown below). I hope you
can join us. <br>
<br>
Dan<br>
