<div style="color:#008000;font-size:10pt;text-align:justify;" align="justify"><span> <br /><div>On December 19, 2016, we convened a group of thirteen forest practitioners, stakeholders, and scientists for a roundtable dialogue and field trip about the Hubbard Brook Ice Storm Experiment. The goal of the meeting was for scientists to share ice storm research while it is currently in progress and for scientists to hear feedback about what aspects of the work are most relevant to practitioners and stakeholders. The group also had a chance to tour the Ice Storm plots in the experimental forest, traveling in style in vintage snow cats.</div><br /><div>On January 9, 2017, we convened a group of twelve educators and scientists for a focus group to evaluate the Waterviz water cycle visualization and sonification tools for use in formal and informal education settings. Educators from middle and high school and after-school programs in New Hampshire and New York participated. The meeting resulted in a framework of user-based feedback that the Waterviz team will be implementing over the next year.</div><br /><div>If you'd like to learn more about these projects or the Hubbard Brook Roundtable model, please email <a style="color:rgb(0, 110, 109);text-decoration:underline;" shape="rect" href="mailto:sgarlick@hubbardbrookfoundation.org" linktype="2" target="_blank">Sarah Garlick</a>.<br /></div></span></div>
