Please send along anything else that you feel is worthwhile to include in the Workbook — figures, draft, submitted or published manuscripts (eegle products), etc.

We want to produce a slide that represents each logical unit of the EEGLE program. For example the Sediment Proposal was large and there are several ‘units’ including:

If you feel that you are a logical unit, please provide (electronically)

  1. Project Title
  2. Participants
  3. Goal(s) / objectives and how they relate to EEGLE hypotheses
  4. Summary - major findings, issues, accomplishments
Copies will be provided to everyone at the meeting (*Workbook) and they will be put on the web.
