by Tiffany Vance and Unidata Staff
Unidata tools, technologies, and services play a significant role in data integration and access at NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service. Dr. Tiffany Vance studies oceanic habitats to support ecosystem based management and marine spatial planning. A trio of Unidata tools--netCDF, THREDDS, and the Integrated Data Viewer--aid Dr. Vance in her research on the critical impacts of climate change on non-human organisms, in this case, fish habitats.

The EGU abstract deadline is looming! January 18, 2010 is the date.
Springtime in Wien means many things not the least of which is the annual European Geosciences Union General Assembly scheduled for May 2-7, 2010.
The Earth & Space Science Informatics Session was accepted as a Division of EGU in 2008. There was instant interest in the various sessions available for presenters to discuss and display their research and technologies to EGU participants, because of the constant advances associated with ESSI activities. We'd like to continue the momentum!
Please browse the Session Programme and submit to your sessions of interest. You may specify your preference for either a poster or oral presentation.
General meeting information is available at http://meetings.copernicus.org/egu2010/
Follow the Call for Papers and the links to Earth and Space Science Informatics to submit your abstract. http://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2010/sessionprogramme/ESSI |

Unidata 25th Anniversary Participants |
"Celebrate the Past, Focus on the Present, and Dream about the Future"
Fill in the blanks: Unidata's 25th anniversary event was __? Well, it was many things. It was a stroll down memory lane with reminiscences from founding fathers and early program center employees; it was light hearted and fun. Some speakers flattered while others challenged. Most of all the event was collegial and warm hearted with old friends greeting one another, newcomers meeting, greeting, and becoming acquainted, staff overseeing it all while participating in all of the activity. It was a delightful event.
Information about the event is available and active. It has been updated with links to all presentations. In addition, we webcast the event from start to finish, and we invite you to browse them as interest and time permit.
We thank each of you who took time from retirement activities or busy professional duties and commitments to celebrate this milestone with us, and we hope that many of you will be sticking around for the spirit and adventure of the next twenty-five.
To view the archived web cast of this event please see: Webcasts.
