[LTER-BioProd] Agenda paper: new draft, and request to present

[LOREAU Michel]

Hi Mary,

My flights have been cancelled, so I have some spared time in airports today to read your manuscript. Please find attached some comments and reference suggestions.

Looking forward to seeing you (rather briefly) in Monte Verità,

Best,
Michel

Dear all,

Sorry for the second email: Here is the file with a revised author list, and to let you know that I also put the PDF in our google drive.

Mary

Hello everyone!

I hope you are well, and off to a great summer. I’m checking with an update of (hopefully) progress on the Agenda paper (attached). This progress is motivated by me giving a talk at a Biodiversity/Climate Change meeting in Switzerland this coming Thursday. Some of us will be there (Michel, Forest, Jane, Andy H…) and the Agenda paper leaders felt this would be a good time to present this to that audience. Many of the attendees will include people actively involved in the recent IPBES reports.

So, two action items for you:

1. OPTIONAL: FOR THE TALK NEXT THURSDAY JULY 4: If you have time and would like to comment on this before I present the highlights next Thursday, please do! I apologize for the short notice on this, and I also apologize for sending it on a Friday. If you have any major reservations with me presenting any part of this, let me know. I would like to acknowledge everyone in this group as a co-author on this part of my talk, and if you would prefer that I not do that (or not include your name at this stage) let me know. Ideally, before Tuesday July 2nd. If I don’t hear from you I’ll assume it’s ok to present this with you included as a contributor.

2. FOR THE MANUSCRIPT: Please read and comment on this version of the manuscript. I’d like to know how close this could be to submittable. I expect another round to the group for ‘final’ feedback after this round, but let me know if I’m off base. I’ve attached a PDF here so you can:
- read and provide general comments on big/conceptual issues at this stage.
- If you would like to work on text or figures, I would welcome the help and please let me know, I will send a word doc and we can discuss.
- please help me with references and examples! You all know some part of the literature better than I do! Highlighted refs are ones that I don’t have but were suggested, so please fill those in too.
- I still (as always) need major help with figures so if you are inspired, please help here!

Deadline for comments on this draft: July 12th. This is very negotiable. After that I will revise and send back out, at that would be a time for finessing wording, etc (we don’t all have to do this, but a few helpers here would be great).

Still need to make a final call on where to submit. We’re just over 3000 words now and this seems like a good length to me, but I welcome in put on that too.

Best wishes,

Mary
