[LTER-mcm-pi] Fwd: Upcoming Report Release and Webinar: A Strategic Vision for NSF Investments in Antarctic and Southern Ocean Research

[Michael Gooseff]

I’m sure that Tina has been biting her tounge for months (she served on this committee), and after next Tuesday she can speak freely without having to shoot any of us…

This very important report will come out on Tuesday and we should all pay attention to it.  While it may not have direct bearing on our renewal, we may want to cite it or use it to make one point or another about science in Antarctica (most of our reviewers for the renewal will likely be ecologists, not ANT scientists)…  So, please make an effort to see the webinar and/or check out the report after next Tuesday.

Thanks.

cheers
-Mike

Dear Colleagues,

The National Academies’ Polar Research Board is pleased to announce that the report “A Strategic Vision for NSF Investments in Antarctic and Southern Ocean Research” will be released on Tuesday, August 11 at 11:00 AM EDT. A PDF version of the report will be available for free download at that time at http://dels.nas.edu/prb/.

This study builds directly upon an extensive process to gather input and ideas from Antarctic and Southern Ocean researchers across the country. Many of you made valuable contributions to this process, at the in-person meetings and online.

You are invited to join us for a webinar presentation and discussion of the report on August 11th at 1:00 PM EDT. Robin Bell (Co-Chair) and other members of the authoring Committee will lead a discussion about the report’s main outcomes and recommendations.   If you would like to join the webinar, please register here: http://dels.nas.edu/Upcoming-Event/Strategic-Planning-Antarctic-Southern/AUTO-3-61-21-I.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Best regards,
Lauren
