Hi Folks, For the Earth and environmental scientists on the list, there will be a webinar introducing the newly formed "Synchrotron for Earth and Environmental Science" on Tuesday, November 14th, at 3 PM Chicago time, as presented by SEES Director Andy Campbell. If you are interested in learning more, you can sign up for the Zoom link for the webinar at:
https://cars.uchicago.edu/sees/2023/09/27/sees-webinar-sees-the-light/ For a little more background: SEES (Synchrotron Earth and Environmental Science) is a new cooperative agreement with NSF to manage and enhance NSF Earth Science-supported beamline operations for Earth and environmental science research at four DOE synchrotron facilities: the Advanced Photon Source (APS), the Advanced Light Source (ALS), the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), and the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL). See https://cars.uchicago.edu/sees/ for more information. SEES will support many beamlines across the US for Earth and environmental science, including a few X-ray microprobe beamlines for XAS and other spectroscopy and imaging experiments such as the one I run at the APS. This new organization will also be the source of most of my support for the foreseeable future, with a healthy fraction of that explicitly earmarked for work on cyber-infrastructure, including the XAFS-related software discussed here. Cheers, --Matt
