[CIG-ALL] Request for Community input to Catalyzing Opportunities for Research in the Earth Sciences (CORES)

[Louise Kellogg]

Dear CIG community:



The National Academies is conducting a study on Catalyzing Opportunities
for Research in the Earth Sciences (CORES) for the Division of Earth
Sciences at the National Science Foundation and wants to hear from you!

The purpose of the CORES study is to (1) identify a concise set of
high-priority scientific questions for the next decade, (2) assess
infrastructure needed to address these questions, and (3) determine
opportunities for greater collaboration with other NSF divisions and
directorates, federal agencies, and domestic and international partners.

The CORES committee strongly feels that this study must be informed by
vigorous community input from across the entire spectrum of Earth sciences.
One of the ways the CORES committee is soliciting input is through a
questionnaire assessing your ideas about upcoming research priorities:

The CORES site (http://nas-sites.org/dels/studies/cores/) provides more
detailed information on the study charge, as well as a complete list of
committee members.  Please go to the website and contribute your comments
regarding the top Earth science priorities for the next decade.

I hope you will join me in providing your ideas to the CORES committee, as
this will influence scientific directions in our field for the coming
decade.


Best wishes,


Louise Kellogg
