Input needed on CORES study<\/strong><\/p>\n

We’d also like to remind our community to provide input to the CORES study. Please see the request below from Dennis Kent, Rutgers:<\/p>\n

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!<\/p>\n

The purpose of the CORES study is to:<\/p>\n

identify a concise set of high-priority scientific questions for the next decade,
\nassess infrastructure needed to address these questions, and
\ndetermine opportunities for greater collaboration with other NSF divisions and directorates, federal agencies, and domestic and international partners.
\nThe 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 we are soliciting input is through a questionnaire assessing your ideas about upcoming research priorities. Visit the questionnaire website.<\/a><\/p>\n

The CORES website<\/a> provides more detailed information on the study charge, as well as a complete list of committee members.<\/p>\n

Please contribute your comments regarding the top Earth science priorities for the next decade.<\/p>\n

Thank you!<\/p>\n
