The<span class="gmail_default" style="font-family:garamond,serif;font-size:large"></span> Bio, Marine and Soil folks are all primed. A working collaborative<br>
session with any of those clusters would likely yield useful results.<br>
<br>
Gary, if you are keen to lead a Landforms session I think it would also<br>
be relevant to the soils folks.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
