[Esip-agclimate] Session title etc. for ESIP Summer Meeting

[Bill Teng]

Hi, All:

I just submitted our proposed session (w/ tentative title) for the 
Summer meeting (http://commons.esipfed.org/node/2331). Please take a 
look and provide any feedback. Thanks.

Nancy - Thanks for your input. Yes, those are the three potential 
speakers. A fourth one might be Brad Doorn of NASA Applied Sciences 
(both Water Resources and Agriculture). Not all probably would be 
available. But, if they are, I'm thinking to invite two of them, given 
the time we'll have for a session. Last year, we had Mark Walbridge 
(LTAR) and Bill Hohenstein (CCPO) giving remote presentations, which 
worked fairly well. With the federal travel restrictions, we may be 
doing something similar this year. I think we should still try to get 
something going with Mark at LTAR, while keeping the larger context in 
mind. So, I'm thinking of calling in the order of Mark, Simon Liu (NAL 
and LTAR data system), Bill H., and Brad.

Please let me know what you all think and think we should do!

Thanks,
Bill
