Revision as of 09:53, 27 February 2010

This page is a repository of information for planning the 2nd AMS Data Analysis Clinic Meeting in Boulder. A shorcut to this page is http://tinyurl.com/AMSClinic2/

IMPORTANT: Please RSVP (names, affiliations, snow day info, etc.) on this (open) google doc so we can plan food and schedule accordingly

General Information and Location

The people who should attend this clinic are those who are directly doing (or are VERY involved in directly supervising) AMS data analysis of field of lab data. The clinic will be much less useful for PIs who are not directly involved in data analysis, or for people who are just starting to learn about the AMS but haven't done serious data analysis yet.

The dates will be Mon Feb 22 to Thu Feb 25. We'll start Mon @ 9 am, so people should fly in the evening before (Doug and Manjula promised to fly in the night before too). We plan to end on Thu @ 5 pm, and we will organize skiing, snowshoeing and other activities on Friday for people who can stay an extra day, so please plan your flights accordingly. As planned, this is "out of phase" with the AMS Users Meeting and the heavy Fall meeting season (AAAR, EAC, AMS Users Meeting, AGU...).

There is no registration fee, but please let us know if you are coming to plan food, coffee, tables, power, internet, etc.

Locations

  • This is a downloadable map that you should print before the Clinic
  • Monday 22 - Thursday 25 we will be meeting in the CU rec center here
  • Thursday the 25th will continue in room E1B20 in the CIRES building if meeting time runs past 5pm. here
  • Daily schedule: Breakfast set up 8:30, people 8:45-9:00. Meeting starts @ 9am. Break 10:45-11:00. Lunch @ 12:30-1:30. Break 3:30-4:00. End at 6 pm.

Logistics

  • Visiting us - Link to transportation (from Airport and within Boulder)
  • A google map with hotel, meeting room, dinner locations and walking paths here

More information will be posted in this Wiki as it becomes available.

Tentative Program

The structure of the 2nd Clinic is 4 days, not just focusing on high-resolution, but rather on:

  • day 1: UMR issues, SQ, CE, RIE, spectra comparisons...
  • day 2: PMF
  • days 3 & 4: HR issues, elemental analysis, HR-PMF + errors etc.

The content will be determined by the interests of the participants, and the schedule can be adapted as needed.

Subtopics to be discussed (pls add or let us know of suggestions):

Day 1

(8:20 -- Ingrid meets participants at Millennium to walk to CU Rec Center)

Day 2 - Finish UMR issues & PMF

  • ARI-Sponsored Dinner Antica Roma
    • Arrive at 7PM
    • Location: on the Pearl Street Mall between 13th and 14th streets, across from the courthouse, in downtown Boulder. Picture

Days 3 - HR

Day 4 - Finish

Day 5 Play in Colorado

  • For those wishing to extend their trip to ski, snowshoe, or enjoy some outdoor activities, some CU folks can help plan something fun.

Lodging

  • We have reserved a block of 20 rooms for Sunday February 21, 2010 through Friday February 26, 2010. At the Millenium hotel in Boulder. (Address is 1345 Twenty-Eighth Street) Boulder, CO 80302).
  • The group rate for a double bedded room is $109.00 per day.
  • Reservations can be made by calling 303.998.2480 or 1.800.545.6285 and refer to the AMS Users meeting or confirmation code 1002UNIVCU
  • Reservations can also be made online here and receive the same group rate.
  • The group rate is offered 3 days prior and 3 days after the room block that is reserved until the hotel reaches an occupancy of 80% so if you plan on staying after the clinic has finished making an early reservation may be beneficial.
