Folks. If we do put together a sponsor sheet (or recognition in the program), can we make sure WebEx is listed? They are donating free use of their software for the conference, including toll-free call-in.

Chris and everyone...I cannot make the 26th conference call b/c I have an all day teacher workshop. I will pass along my updates/questions for the group to Jess.

Sounds great EV. Do you want to put together a simple draft?
Comment by Elizabeth Vernon Bell on October 12, 2009 at 10:37am
I really like the logo and the suggestion to recognize the contributing partners on a nicely printed sign. I'd be happy to spearhead this.
Comment by Rochelle Sturtevant on October 9, 2009 at 2:05pm
This is much cleaner -- very nice!
Comment by Christopher L Conger on October 9, 2009 at 1:51pm
I posted the new version of the logo. Take a look and let me know. I tried to shape it to fit on a thumb drive and still be readable.
Comment by Christopher L Conger on October 9, 2009 at 11:42am
Got it. Thanks everyone. I will clean the logo up when I get into the office and post the new one. I like the idea of acknowledgments during the workshop.
Comment by Rochelle Sturtevant on October 9, 2009 at 10:23am
Logo works for me!
Comment by Jim Hurley on October 9, 2009 at 10:23am
Agreed. The "Sea Grant Climate Network Workshop 2009" on the thumb drive would work best. We could also make a background slide/desktop projection for use during presentations with the logos of contributors present.

In response to my request to Sea Grant directors for extra contributions, a few programs responded to me that they can't go beyond paying for travel costs of their representatives as support for the conference. I think that, coupled with Esperanza's comment below, makes it a bit awkward to have only the programs sending "extra" support noted on the memory stick.
Comment by Esperanza Stancioff on October 9, 2009 at 9:15am
I agree with what Bob is saying. Also, if we have other programs asked to contribute for specific needs (speaker travel, etc) at this point then they would not be included.

Possible record-setting dead zone for Gulf of Mexico

Scientists are expecting a very large “dead zone” in the Gulf of Mexico and a smaller than average hypoxic level in the Chesapeake Bay this year, based on several NOAA-supported forecast models.

NOAA releases draft proposal to expand Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary

NOAA today released for public comment a draft environmental impact statement (DEIS) and proposed rule for expanding the boundaries of Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary in Lake Huron from its current 448 square miles to 4,300 square miles.

2012 ranks as 2nd costliest year with 11 billion-dollar disasters causing more than $110 billion in damages

Sandy caused approximately $65 billion and drought nearly $30 billion in damage, according to a final report by NOAA's National Climatic Data Center.

Science Daily Climate News

Stone Age technological and cultural innovation accelerated by climate change

Technological innovation during the Stone Age occurred in fits and starts and was climate-driven, according to new research. Abrupt changes in rainfall in South Africa 40,000 to 80,000 years ago triggered the development of technologies for finding refuge and the behavior of modern humans.

Predators affect the carbon cycle, study shows

A new study shows that the predator-prey relationship can affect the flow of carbon through an ecosystem. This previously unmeasured influence on the environment may offer a new way of looking at biodiversity management and carbon storage for climate change.

Underwater springs reveal how coral reefs respond to ocean acidification

Ocean acidification due to rising carbon dioxide levels will reduce the density of coral skeletons, making coral reefs more vulnerable to disruption and erosion, according to a new study of corals growing where submarine springs naturally lower the pH of seawater. The study is the first to show that corals are not able to fully acclimate to low pH conditions in nature.
