National Data Infrastructure for Earth System Science
Monday, 5 December, 1815-1915
Location: Moscone West, Room 2008
Efforts to construct cyber-infrastructure spanning the geosciences have been underway for several years in the U.S. and elsewhere around the globe. These efforts are intended to transform the way research is conducted by supporting innovative approaches seeking to integrate data and subsequently knowledge management across the disciplines. This town hall session seeks to explore current activities in this arena in the U.S., such as NSF's NSF’s Earth-Cube initiative, and around the globe, such as the WISE effort in Europe. It will highlight the approaches deployed to rally geoscience communities behind this effort and determine their needs, preferences, and priorities.

The theme for the Ignite@AGU talks will highlight NASA's Applied Earth science focus areas: Agriculture, Air Quality, Climate, Ecological Forecasting, Public Health, Natural Disasters, Water Resources, and Weather. More importantly, it creatively addresses the NASA's Science Mission Directorate's Directorate’s need to "bring “bring together members of the scientific communities relevant in order to expose investigators to new subject areas." This event also will be a chance for AGU to showcase and highlight the breadth of AGU member expertise and create connections that may not otherwise occur.
There is still space for presenters, if you are interested in throwing your hat in the ring and giving an Ignite talk. Contact Erin Robinson, erinrobinson@esipfed.org, by November 20th for all the details.
