The NSF Arctic Observing Network (AON) announces the next thematic
webinar in the series on Long-Term Observing Management and Governance.
This event will focus on Award Structure and Management, and will be an
interactive panel discussion held on Tuesday, 18 February 2014 at 1:30pm
EDT.
The webinar will be held via WebEx. The panel will be moderated by
KnowInnovation and will include a question and answer session. Panelists
will be providing perspectives on a wide range of approaches to funding
for observations and will address questions such as:
- How might long-term observing systems be managed?
- What are the benefits of utilizing different management structures?
- Should critical path planning be used to advance observing efforts?
- Are there cost savings from non-traditional methods, such as
crowdsourcing?
- What are the realities of multi-agency funding of observations?
- Should interdependent infrastructure be encouraged to reduce
redundancy and answer more integrated questions?
Please register with the ArcticHub (http://www.arctichub.net) to view
future events and subscribe to the calendar of webinars. An associated
funding opportunity to continue the discussion beyond the webinar
timeframe can be found at

We look forward to your participation and questions on February 18th.
