[LTER-All-lter] Fw: Consortium of biogeochemical modeling forming across CZO/LTER/NOEN/ISMC

[Marty Downs]

Dear LTER Network participants--

One of the outcomes of the recent CZO/LTER/NEON/ISMC modeling workshop, Using
Observation Networks to Advance Earth System Understanding: State of the
Art, Data-Model Integration, and Frontiers
<http://www.neonscience.org/obs-networks-earth-system-understanding-2018>,
is an effort to develop a consortium on biogeochemical modeling. The effort
is at an early stage, with goals and plans still taking shape.

If you are interested in participating, please contact Peter Groffman,
Peter.Groffman at asrc.cuny.edu, who will coordinate LTER interest.

Want to know more about the workshop? Agenda and presentations are
available at the above link.

Cheers,

Marty

Dear all,

You has expressed, or your friends have volunteered you to express,
an interest in the consortium.

This is a great group to start with.

Now it is time to figure out what to do with this consortium. If our goal
is to exchange ideas and promote collaboration, we may need to


   1. understand each others' research scopes, approaches, and focuses
   within this group
   2. identify our common interests where we can collaborate
   3. develop an action plan.

An action plan could include the following activities:


   1. Meeting(s), such as workshops, conferences, or symposia. We may
   develop proposals to organize sessions at AGU, EGU, ESA, or other
   conferences.
   2. Model inter-comparison project (MIP) or model-data intecomparison
   project (MDIP) at some co-located CZO-LTER-NEON sites.
   3. Joint proposals
   4. Working groups to tackle specific questions.

We may have another person to co-coordinate this consortium. Any volunteers
are welcome.

For the time being, let us discuss whether those ideas make sense to you or
not. Also, please make new suggestions.

Best,

Yiqi
