NSF Advisory Committee on Environmental Research and Education Survey Notice
http://www.nsf.gov/geo/ere/ereweb/advisory.jsp
While this report frames broad new directions at NSF, we also have an opportunity to identify key new and emerging focal points for research. The Advisory Committee has been asked to identify key research and education challenges that could be used to frame research priority setting within the agency. We are developing a modest engagement activity to seek from the science community their input to identify these challenges and research questions. To do this we have developed a basic questionnaire (6 questions) that is accessible by a web site using SurveyMonkey
Based on the emerging research questions identified in this questionnaire, the Committee will also identify research infrastructure needs (e.g., observation networks, computing and data management, ship requirements, shore facilities, etc.) and collaboration opportunities.
In seeking broad input the Committee would like to draw widely on the expertise and experience of the environmental science community. We kindly request your assistance by filling out a short questionnaire. This provides you an opportunity to identify the most important environmental science and engineering questions that you believe will motivate ERE research over the next 10 years. Note that you don’t have to answer all the questions for your contribution to be valuable to the committee.
