GLIMS Update: (1) Kudos; (2) NASA funding

[Paul E Geissler]

Dear Jeff et al.,

  Because of ongoing commitments to other NASA projects, I will not be
  submitting an independent proposal to the Earth System Science Research
  Program this summer on behalf of USGS Astrogeology. However, I would like
  to offer our services to GLIMS PIs that may be in need of the specialized
  expertise available in Flagstaff, which includes image processing and
  analysis, algorithm development, software development, web services, DEM
  generation, and GIS. As a specific example of such collaboration I would
  remind the community of our recent work with Chris Larsen, for whom we
  applied image "warping" to improve the registration of large topographic
  data sets that could not otherwise be coregistered. Please keep us in
  mind as you prepare your proposals and contact me directly to discuss
  specific needs.

Thanks, Paul Geissler

Dear GLIMS colleagues,

Kudos to Deborah Soltesz for some excellent work she has been doing for
GLIMSView and the GLIMS website, such as the recent inauguration of a
discussion forum and other work she has been doing behind the scenes.

Also, to those eligible for NASA funding (generally not foreigners working
at foreign institutions, unfortunately), please do not forget that NASA has
an important funding opportunity this summer under the program Earth System
Science Research using Data and Products from the Terra, Aqua, and ACRIMSAT
Satellites.  I would imagine that each U.S. GLIMS institution, plus those
aspiring to join GLIMS (and a whole lot of others) will be submitting
proposals or will be teaming with PIs who will submit proposals.
