Collaborative Opportunity

The National Science Foundation has released a Dear Colleague Letter (DCL): Signals in the Soil (SitS). The SitS initiative aims to encourage convergent research that transforms existing capabilities in understanding dynamic near-surface processes through advances in sensor systems and dynamic models via the submission of Early-Concept Grants for Exploratory Research (EAGER) proposals for early-stage, high-risk, high-reward research on technologies, models, and methods to better understand dy

Proposals for the CZO SAVI International Scholars Program are due March 12, 2018.

3rd Call for Multi-domain Access to Environmental Research Infrastructures

Webinar: Data Resources and Accessibility Across Observation Networks and Platforms
When: Wednesday, Jan 17th @ 10-11 AM MT

To register: http://www.neonscience.org/opportunities/events/data-resources-accessibi...

We invite you to join an interactive discussion on the spatiotemporal scales, process representation, and motivating science questions by modelers involved in the CZO, LTER, ISMC, and NEON communities.

The University of Bristol has announced a new, competitive fellowship scheme. http://www.bristol.ac.uk/vc-fellows/

We invite you to join an interactive discussion on challenges and opportunities for integrating terrestrial observation network data into models being held Wednesday, Nov. 8th at 9 AM MST/5 PM CEST. The webinar on will begin with a presentation outlining results from a cross-network survey conducted by the International Soil Modeling Consortium (ISMC) on data-model integration in US and international LTER and CZO networks.

Dear colleagues, 

A New Springer-Nature Book Series: Advances in Critical Zone Science
Series Editor: Steven A. Banwart (University of Leeds)

An Invitation for Edited and Authored Volumes

The series editor invites proposals for edited or authored volumes for the series. All areas of Critical Zone science are welcome, particularly those drawing on recent outcomes of funded national CZO programmes.

Brantley, et al. has recently published a discussion paper, "Designing a network of critical zone observatories to explore the living skin of the terrestrial Earth," in Earth Surface Dynamics. We invite you to contribute to this discussion.
