Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Esip-agclimate] Agriculture and Climate Cluster meeting | 2020-08-18 @ 1500 hrs eastern

Hello Ag & Climate cluster (ACC):

In a nutshell:  There will be an ACC call next Tuesday 2020-08-18 @ 1500 hrs eastern (see points #1 and #2 below) where we'd like to get your input on an ACC Roadmap used to organize the topics for future talks this year (see points #3 and #4 below).  We have an ACC logo (see my email signature below)!

============ DETAILS ============

1.  Next Tuesday's call.  Next week's call is on Tuesday 2020-08-18 @ 1500 hrs eastern.  The Gotomeeting URL is https://www.gotomeeting.com/join/534768669<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.gotomeeting.com_join_534768669&d=DwMFaQ&c=ApwzowJNAKKw3xye91w7BE1XMRKi2LN9kiMk5Csz9Zk&r=img-rO8ZBhblrx41WBkIFetQkzEsdhT-s4UDDrJe0Xk&m=2FA7zZ70XUdTTOLKPpZpyjdVbdZuyTrv8gJUpeT8RoY&s=hOVyF9YegXrVa2oB3LYDhHZl9GS5KNoqRTWw56Zibm4&e=>.  The fully qualified meeting coordinates (with call-in numbers) is pasted below if you need.  We shall be discussing two main items: (1) Recap of the ACC 2020 Summer meeting session "Community Concept Mapping For Data-to-Decisions- Use Cases In Climate Adaptation, Disaster Planning, and Disaster Response", and (2) Review of a draft Roadmap for integrating science, technology, and policy issues for ag-related issues that will be used to guide the topics for our future calls into the end of 2020 (see below, points #3 and #4).

2.  Calendar of future calls.  Bill and I have decided to organize bi-monthly calls for the rest of the year.  Generally, we will meet the 1st and 3rd Tuesday (1500 hrs eastern) of every month, except for November when we meet on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays.  We felt it necessary to double the call frequency because we felt the scope of science, technology, and policy issues that we hope to cover under the Roadmap (see below, points #3 and #4) cannot adequately be covered by monthly meetings.  We also hope to eventually adopt the summer meeting practice of breaking out into smaller groups to solicit your input in these meetings through these more regular calls.

3.  Roadmap: why.  In talking with, and contributing to activities helmed by other ESIP clusters, we can clearly see many more synergies that remain unexploited.  The ACC Summer meeting session has also resulted in a number of good suggestions for topics for discussion.  On one hand, our cluster needs to continue pushing into technology topics (particularly related to machine learning and natural language processing) that help transform data into decisions.  On the other hand, we cannot examine these technologies without understanding the complex landscape of real-world applied problems.  Next Tuesday, we would like to get your feedback on a draft Roadmap that defines the scope of these real-world applied problems.  The Roadmap, essentially a conceptual framework (in the form of a concept map), can be used to associate specific use-cases and technologies relevant to those use-cases.

4.  Roadmap: what.  The proposed Roadmap will be based on climate-related impacts on the Sustainable Development Goals 2, 13, and 15<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__drive.google.com_file_d_1zP0Ea9VnvfrBnGTA2i0XJ52zTPXVoUpS_view-3Fusp-3Dsharing&d=DwMFaQ&c=ApwzowJNAKKw3xye91w7BE1XMRKi2LN9kiMk5Csz9Zk&r=img-rO8ZBhblrx41WBkIFetQkzEsdhT-s4UDDrJe0Xk&m=5JQIzEwo4mOGSOKJoPq2mYuN_tIL3p4pCEdsXAluquI&s=AC8DU--GRDk1SDn_R1FL-c7dxujeotNCqrhkuzFZJUo&e=> (includes: climate impacts, agriculture, forests, sustainability, biodiversity, disaster risk management).  This includes impacts to agriculture, as well as cascading downstream impacts thereof.  Topics related to the Roadmap include:

  *   Already work-in-progress, to be continued:
     *   Wildfire prevention and response (including the deliberations by breakout group 2 at the ESIP summer meeting ACC session).
     *   Aquatic nutrient pollution as an effect of changing hydrological regimes.
  *   Initiated or proposed at the summer meeting:
     *   Food security and national security.
     *   Using long-term observational data to inform strategies that balance sustainable wind-energy solutions and biodiversity conservation goals (click here to read and comment on the G3Framework drafted by breakout group 3 at the ESIP summer meeting ACC session<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__docs.google.com_document_d_18I5TQ0vCAsS5TIb7wOs1QZwT-5FzVTzawqxCZt-2DbeEcQI_edit-3Fusp-3Dsharing&d=DwMFaQ&c=ApwzowJNAKKw3xye91w7BE1XMRKi2LN9kiMk5Csz9Zk&r=img-rO8ZBhblrx41WBkIFetQkzEsdhT-s4UDDrJe0Xk&m=2FA7zZ70XUdTTOLKPpZpyjdVbdZuyTrv8gJUpeT8RoY&s=EH7i4lHnrzryeTorCuVR6qMKklyTiUo37o3hMso8E_0&e=>).
