The SPDS has a Project Scientist, R. McPherron of the University of
California, Los Angeles; two Project Coordinators,
R. McGuire and M. Teague, both of the Goddard Space Flight Center;
and four Discipline Coordinators, T. Garrard for C&H;
for Solar, R. Bogart
of Stanford University;
D. Winningham of the Southwest Research Institute,
for ITM; and for Magnetospheric, D. Sibeck of the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory.
This group forms the Coordinators Working Group that channels science
community input to NASA on
SPDS and other data-related issues, working through J. Willett of Space Physics
Division Mission Operations and Data Analysis. Each of the four Discipline
Coordinators has a Discipline Coordination Team (DCT) which is intended
to facilitate communications with the Discipline Community. The C&H team
includes John Cooper of Hughes/STX Corp and the NSSDC;
Alan Cummings of the California Institute of Technology;
Paul Gazis of the Ames Research Center,
Thomas Garrard, T. Gregory Guzik of Louisiana State University,
William Kurth of the University of Iowa;
Alan Lazarus of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology;
Ralph McNutt of the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory;
Roger Pyle of the University of Chicago; and Charles W. Smith
of the Bartol Research Institute.
Douglas Hamilton and Frank McDonald of the University of Maryland;
Robert McGuire;
Tycho von Rosenvinge of the Goddard Space Flight Center;
and Bruce Tsurutani of the California Institute of Technology
Jet Propulsion Laboratory are
closely associated with the team in an evolving structure. Any of these
people should be viewed as a conduit for suggestions to the SPDS or
information from or about the SPDS.
They, as well as the staff of the NSSDC/SPDF facilities, can also be contacted
for advice on technical problems such as how to get started with the
World Wide Web.
