3 Jeffrey Walker, Jetse Kalma and Jorg Hacker Actions Sub working group leaders to prepare a short outline of what ground/air measurements and infrastructure are required to answer their science questions, approximate $$ needed, and plan for seeking funding etc Funding shortfall for LIDAR – needed for pretty much everything … Funding for: hyperspectral scanner irrigation and salinity? forest carbon/water/energy fluxes for NAFE’06 OASIS did fluxes well but not soil moisture, NAFE is doing soil moisture well but not fluxes. Need to ensure we don’t miss out on fluxes …!!! Request 6sec archive of sonde (Williamtown and Wagga) and high res orbiter data from BoM
