Thread: Resulting white papers from the ECI virtual workshop on a future geophysical facility

Dear Colleagues,

Using input from Early Career Investigators (ECIs) who participated in
the “Early
Career Investigator Virtual Workshop on a Community Vision for the Future
Geophysical Facility” held April 23-24, 2020 and respondents to a follow-up
survey for ECIs, we have submitted and archived three white papers that
focus on instrumentation

data services
