[Aqualist] Nominations to PAGES Scientific Steering Committee

[Louise Newman]

PAGES (Past Global Changes) seeks nominations for several new  
Scientific Steering Committee (SSC) members before 1 JUNE 2009.

The SSC provides guidance for the PAGES project as a whole and  
oversees major scientific activities.

Members are chosen based on scientific excellence and status in their  
communities, as well as to provide a balance of paleoscientific  
expertise and national representation.

In this round, PAGES is particularly interested in scientists from  
the Southern Hemisphere, and those who will actively work to drive  
forward the recently completed Science Plan and Implementation  
Strategy (http://www.pages-igbp.org/science/).

To nominate a paleoscientist (no self-nominations), please send the  
following Word files by email to PAGES Executive Director, Thorsten  
Kiefer (kiefer at pages.unibe.ch):
* A nomination letter (1 page)
* The nominee's cv (max. 6 pages)
* 2 letters of support from scientists within PAGES research areas  
(each max. 1 page)
* A statement from the nominee on their goals and plans for PAGES as  
an SSC member (max. 1 page)

A list of current SSC members and further details on the nomination  
procedure can be found at:

Please pass this email on to anyone you think might be interested.
