American Geophysical Union (AGU)
The mission of the AGU:
The purpose of the American Geophysical Union is to promote discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity.
While I was hunting down information on DataONE, I ran across the AGU site.
Like all disciplines, data analysis, collection, collation, sharing, etc. are ongoing concerns at the AGU.
My interest in more in the data techniques than the subject matter.
Seeking to avoid re-inventing the wheel and learning new insights than has yet to reach more familiar areas.
