[LTER-im] VWC - Next generation climate and hydrology database -- Monday January 13th at 12 pm PST / 3 pm EST

[Jason Downing]

Greetings and Happy New Year to All,

Next Monday we will be having our regular monthly water cooler with a
discussion about the forthcoming RFC concerning the next generation climate
and hydrology database.  The working group has vetted this proposed plan of
action and would like to get feedback before having our rep (Dan) present
the final recommendation to the EB.  IMEXEC feels that the feedback from
our 2018 all-site survey was positive for harmonized climate and hydrology
datasets and with the IMC recommendation of this proposed approach
developed by the WG.  We regard this contribution to CUAHSI as a value
added approach and an opportunity to use existing cooperative services and
common tools for better distributing data.  Please take some time to read
of the RFC before we meet next week.

We would also like to invite other contributors to the old CLIMDB and
HYDRODB systems to participate in this discussion and provide their
feedback on the proposed RFC.  Our colleges at organizations like the USFS
who have a history with this system are welcome to join in our discussion
so please forward this message to other interested parties.


Here is the cleaned-up RFC:
