It’s the premier event for discovering new, cutting-edge Earth and space science research, engaging with a global and interdisciplinary network of nearly 24,000 attendees, and advancing and building your career through workshops and new connections. Margaret Leinen Chris McEntee The spirit of discovery and vibrant discussions taking place at Fall Meeting are what make the week so rewarding. This year, we have another excellent lineup of sessions and speakers. We’re honored to have H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco as our Presidential Forum Lecturer and Marcia McNutt, the 22nd president of the National Academy of Sciences and former director of the U.S. Geological Survey, as our Union Agency Lecturer. We’re hosting a town hall on data with Rebecca Moore, director of Google Earth, Earth Engine and Outreach, which should be an illuminat- ing discussion on the importance of data in Earth and space sciences, and we’re also particularly excited for the WELCOME LETTERS WELCOME 21st Conference of the Parties (COP21) Union Session with COP21 President Ségolène Royal entitled “The Path Forward from Paris, One Year Later,” which should be especially interesting given the recent ratifications from the United Nations allowing the Paris Agreement to enter into force. Whether you’re a developing young student scientist or a recognized leader in your discipline, presenting or attending, Fall Meeting is a fulfilling experience that you can tailor to your interests or use to branch out to explore new frontiers. Our public lecture, which is a great opportunity to engage the broader public on issues of Earth and space science, is about choosing a landing site on Mars and features both an astrobiologist and a geomorphologist from NASA, as well as a talented high school student. We’re continuing our interdisciplinary SWIRL themes, which give attendees the benefit of sharing research, discoveries, and approaches across disci- plines. Geohealth, a new SWIRL topic this year, will bring together sessions on climate change and human health, medical geology, the interface between water quality and health, and much more. Adding to the spirit of collaboration, this year we have 109 sessions that were co-organized across sections and focus groups. We hope you’re able to make the most of your time in San Francisco. Because we know you can’t possibly attend every session or poster that interests you, we’ve expanded our AGU On-Demand viewing platform by offering live streaming and recorded content that goes hand in hand with our SWIRL themes. Be sure to join us for our networking or social events, take part in a deeper discussion happening on social media by following and using the #AGU16 hashtag, and make the most of the city’s great food and attractions. After this year, Fall Meeting breaks tradition and moves to New Orleans in 2017 and Washington, D.C., in 2018. We are so pleased to have you join us as we say goodbye to San Francisco, and it is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 2016 AGU Fall Meeting! Sincerely, Margaret Leinen, AGU President Christine McEntee, AGU Executive Director and CEO 2 2016 AGU FALL MEETING It is sincerely great to see and meet you once more in San Francisco for the 2016 edition of AGU Fall Meeting! You may have noticed that every year changes to both the organization and the scientific content of the program were introduced to make you feel more comfort- able at the largest meeting of Earth and Space sciences. This year, more changes were imple- mented in the program, which I would like to highlight to you below. • First, after last year’s successful trials, new session formats were implemented that include panel discussions and lightning talks. This option was offered to the conveners when submit- Denis Rousseau ting their session proposals allowing them the opportunity to think about organizing their session differently than the traditional 15-minute pattern. Follow-up discussions can even be organized through specially designed slots available for reservation by AGU meetings staff. • We introduced this year a limitation in the number of invited authors. After significant discussion within the Fall Meeting Program Committee, the policy has been changed to allow for no more than two (2) invited authors per session – this is a reduction from the previous limit of four (4) but should allow more regular presentations to be selected. • The differences between the collaborative session formats: cross-listed, co-sponsored, and co-organized LETTERS WELCOME have been clarified to help conveners to understand and find out what kind of collaborative session they can organize. Such differences are more than simple jargon, and truly correspond to different ways of organizing scientific sessions. • We’ve redesigned our New Generation of Scientists Union Session, designed to demonstrate even earlier the great interest and care of AGU for the development of the younger generations of scientists. Although original- ly a gathering in celebration of the Macelwane medalists and the recipient of the Science for Solution award, this session will now also acknowledge the recipients of the Africa Awards for Research Excellence in Earth and Space Science making this session a true showcase for the diversity of early career scientists and their work. • Concerning participation in the scientific program,
