G05: High-Rate and Low-Latency Data for Earth Science Applications http://www.agu.org/meetings/ja09/program/scientific_session_search.php?s how=detail&sessid=227 The abstract deadline is 4 March 2009. We invite you to submit your proposal and please pass this message on to your colleagues. Sincerely Mike Jackson and Mark Caissy G05: High-Rate and Low-Latency Data for Earth Science Applications Real-time delivery of multi-sensor data is increasingly the standard for scientific networks across many disciplines. This is particularly true for socially important Earth science applications such as earthquake early warning and rapid finite-fault earthquake source models; tsunami and volcano warning; flood warning and hydrologic modeling; improved short-term weather models; landslides, debris flows, and other problems in geomorphology; global environmental change monitoring; and space and atmospheric physics. As a result, it is increasingly common for terrestrial networks, Earth observing satellite missions, and now even submarine observatories to provide low-latency data products, despite significant technical challenges and restricted funding environments. We intend this session to bring together network and data managers, technologists, and researchers with an interest in low-latency data across the Earth sciences. We particularly welcome those presentations that define scientific needs or new solutions that can foster further growth in this exciting area.
