In final discussion it was noted that at the program level, these initiatives represent interaction between the LTER and EOS programs of NSF and NASA, respectively. A number of action items resulted during this meeting and are not all included specifically in the notes. This list, compiled by Chris Justice is included at the end of the report. Please note that this text was gleaned from various discussions during and after the meeting. I have not attempted to list all the acronyms etc., and no member of the meeting has reviewed these notes, thus I take responsibility for any omissions or misinterpretations.
LTER projects fit well with the second and third items.
Bob Murphy gave an update on the 1992 acquisitions, with provisions for each LTER site. A previous note from this meeting erroneously stated that NASA had provided 1991 Landsat-TM data for LTER, however these data were acquired by a funded proposal from NSF to the LTER Network Office. There were 13 acquisitions for LTER sites in 1992. Data sharing restrictions will need to be defined. Better coordination will be needed with NASA regarding these acquisitions, perhaps with the EDC DAAC as the interface.
