CZENMost recently funded projects for CZENA fundamental goal of CZEN is to encourage and promote interdisciplinary research among a network of sites, people and data that span environmental gradients. Until recently the fledgling network has worked to establish the most promising sites with only an eye toward the final goal. But recent awards by the National Science Foundation to support Critical Zone science proposals provide an important step in more quickly building the network. Researchers in the U.S. are encouraged to write proposals to pursue research that crosses the sites within CZEN. Submitted by msk137 on Fri, 08/29/2008 - 07:42. Introduction and CZEN Overview (presented at 2008 Goldschmidt)Publication Type:PresentationSource:(2008)Abstract:About forty scientists from the U.S., Europe, and elsewhere convened at the Goldschmidt meeting in Vancouver, Canada, to discuss Critical Zone science. Remarks were made by S Brantley, Jun Abrajano (NSF) and Enriqueta Barrera (NSF). Discussions centered around the development of the Critical Zone Exploration Network of sites and how activities can be increased to include more sites around the world.

Location(s)Website: NEHCO is part of an NSF-EPSCoR grant awarded to the Nevada System of Higher Education (NSHE) for the 2008-2013 period. As stated in the original proposal, entitled "Nevada Infrastructure for Climate Change Science, Education, and Outreach", our vision is to create a statewide interdisciplinary program and virtual climate change center that will stimulate transformative research, education, and outreach on the effects of regional climate change on ecosystem resources (especially water) and support use of this knowledge by policy makers and stakeholders.

Critical Zone Exploration Network Meeting, Wednesday July 16th, UBC campus during Goldschmidt meetingTo Critical Zone scientists attending Goldschmidt in Vancouver: On Wednesday afternoon, July 16th at 2:30PM at the Goldschmidt meeting in Vancouver, we are planning a small meeting on the UBC Campus. The building and room location for this meeting is Irving K Barber Learning Center- Room 260. Because this is a public meeting, we encourage all interested in the growth of Critical Zone science to attend. The agenda for the meeting will be as follows: 2:30 pm Introduction and CZEN Overview (Sue Brantley) Submitted by msk137 on Mon, 07/07/2008 - 15:49.

Goldschmidt 2008: Multiple approaches for assessing processes in the critical zone: Focus on watersheds around the worldDear CZEN Friends, I'd like to call your attention to a special session for the 2008 Goldschmidt Conference in Vancouver, BC, Canada. We would really love to see submissions focused on specific CZEN seed sites and CZ observatories to facilitate discussion amongst groups working at the same sites. Title: Multiple approaches for assessing processes in the critical zone: Conveners: Heather Buss, U.S. Geological Survey, Menlo Park, CA, USA; Goals: Multidisciplinary studies in the critical zone are receiving more Abstracts are due March 1, 2008. http://www.goldschmidt2008.org/abstracts/instructions Thanks!
