Discussion of Advisory Panel Katja Matthes (GEOMAR/Helmholtz-Zentrum für Ozeanforschung Kiel, SOLARIS, Germany Ulrich Cubasch (TU Berlin, Germany) (suggested by MPS Group) Hauke Schmidt, Hamburg (HAMM`ONIA) Farzad Kamalabadi (Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois, USA, http: //www. ece. illinois. edu/directory/profile. asp? farzadk, 2010 -2012 Aeronomy programme director of National Science Foundation) -> Veronique Greg Kopp (SORCE/TIM Scientist, LASP Boulder, USA) Leslie Gray (NCAS, UK) Mike Lockwood Matt de Land (SSAI, Lanham, USA) (Margit, showed interest in collaboration) -> Thierry Judith Lean (NRL, USA) Peter Stott (UK, climate connection) Michael Rast (ESRIN) head of the Earth observation programme: he's excellent and this may be politically important for bringing forth our message at an ESA level. But he's very busy. Maybe someone else who is involved in ESA climate change initiative Terry Onsager (or Rodney Viereck) (NOAA) for the more applied use of our SSI dataset. Again, they know the topic relatively well but are especially important for making the connection with users.

Discussion of Advisory Panel Advisory Board Groups Climate Community (K. Matthes, Joanna Haigh, H. Schmidt) Thermosphere Modeling (F. Kamalabadi, M. Lockwood) Solar (TSI&SSI) M. De. Land, Marty Snow
