media to provide accurate, science-based, relevant and timely content on the

effective pipeline to local news stations, StormCenter is looking for
nationally recognized experts with excellent communication skills that are
willing and able to speak to media if they call. StormCenter is particularly
interested in recommending those that can address science on the forefront
and its relationship to everyday life with regard to the following topics:
hurricanes, storm surge and flooding, tsunamis, coastal erosion, harmful
algal blooms, pollution and oil spills, dangerous marine life and climate
change. If you or your colleagues are interested in being listed as an
expert please send a phone and email contact and your area of expertise to

You are invited to participate in the upcoming GEOINFORMATICS 2006
Conference to be held at the U.S. Geological Survey, Reston, VA. from May

and models that deal with the broad theme of cyberinfrastructure for earth
and planetary sciences. We encourage researchers in earth and planetary
sciences, as well as information technology and computer sciences to share
new theories and applications that emphasize management, discovery and
semantic integration of data resources, as well as development of tools and
software to facilitate visualization, modeling and new computational
techniques. Please visit http://www.geongrid.org/geoinformatics2006 for
