The Technology Cluster: a brief update

After a brief hiatus, the Technology Cluster is back! We have upcoming events to look forward to. For example, Dr. Graham Ferrier of the University of Hull, and leader of the FTIR Cluster Theme, is demonstrating FTIR Techniques to environmental engineers and managers at Environmental Technology (ET) 2011 today. In addition, Allen Pope, of the Scott Polar Research Institute, University of Cambridge and the UK Polar Network, and leader of the Circumpolar and Cryospheric Earth Observation theme is running a Summer School: Remote Sensing for Polar Scientists at the University of Reading in July. We are also intending to present at RSPSoc 2011 and to produce a Special Issue publication. More details will follow.
