<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="color:black">The NOAA World Data Center for Paleoclimatology is reaching out to scientists and educators, to help you add information about databases, software, and repositories to a central and comprehensive U.S. National
Science Foundation (NSF) catalog of paleogeoscience resources.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="color:black">Paleogeosciences encompasses both paleoenvironmental and paleobiological subjects such as: paleoclimatology, paleoecology, paleogeography, geochronology, and geochemistry.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="color:black">We are striving to catalog software, databases, and sample repositories in these areas.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="color:black">• Software should be non-commercial, and should be paleogeoscience-specific, such as radiocarbon calibration code or CoreWall.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="color:black">• Databases for the catalog are defined as having an online searchable interface.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="color:black">• Sample repositories should offer samples for destructive or non-destructive analysis, such as drill core, tree ring, and ice core repositories.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="color:black">We need you to help us include the resources your community has created and used. Send us the name, website URL, and type of your resource in an email response to this message by *_July 31 _* to be included.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="color:black">Please do not hesitate to call with any questions regarding a potential resource.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="color:black">If you have no resources to offer, please spread the word by forwarding this email.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
