MEETING INVITATION ***
 Airborne Ocean Science Conference
May 24-25, 2006
Moss Landing Marine Laboratories
Moss Landing, CA
The UNOLS Scientific Committee for Oceanographic
Aircraft Research (SCOAR) is hosting a one-day
conference on the use of airborne platforms in
oceanographic and marine meteorological research.
The conference will bring together scientists,
students, engineers and program personnel who
are involved in the use of aircraft and other
aerial platforms for observations of the oceanic
and marine atmospheric environment. The overall
goal of this meeting is to promote the use of
aircraft in marine research, and specific objectives
include: increase communication among aircraft
users and operators; familiarize attendees with
various sensors, platforms and techniques used
by the research aircraft community; provide input
to SCOAR and UNOLS on future uses and needs for
aerial facilities for ocean science.
We invite you to attend this conference, which
will be held at the Moss Landing Marine Laboratories
on Wednesday evening May 24 and Thursday May
25, 2006. If you would like to attend, please
let us know by return email. If you are interested
in making a presentation on your aircraft research
program, please let us know that also, and send
us a tentative title. A detailed meeting agenda,
formal registration information, and information
on area hotels will be sent soon. If you would
like to learn more about recent SCOAR activities,
please see the attached article which appeared
a few months ago in OCEANOGRAPHY. If you have
a colleague who you think would be interested
in this conference, please feel free to forward
this message to him or her. Do not hesitate to
contact either of us at the email addresses below
with any questions you might have.
Hope to see you in May!
