PRAGMA’s Founding Motivations • Science is an intrinsically global activity • The grid is transforming e-science: • computing, data, andcollaboration • The problem remains that the grid • is too hard to use on a routine basis • Middleware software and people need to • interoperate
PRAGMA Overarching Goals Establish sustained collaborations and Advance the use of the gridtechnologies for applications among a community of investigators working with leading institutions around the Pacific Rim Working closely with established activities that promote grid activities or the underlying infrastructure, both in the Pacific Rim and globally. http://www.pragma-grid.net

What is the “Global Lake Ecological Observatory Network?” A grassroots network of People: lake scientists, engineers, information technology experts Institutions: universities, national laboratories, agencies Programs: PRAGMA, AS-Forest Biogeochemistry,US-LTER, TERN, KING, EcoGrid, etc. Instruments Data Linked by a common purpose and cyberinfrastructure With a goal of understanding lake dynamics at local, regional, continental, and global scales March 2005 Source: T. Kratz
Vision and Driving Rationale for GLEON • A global network of hundreds of instrumented lakes, data, researchers, students, • Predict lake ecosystems response to natural and anthropogenic mediated events • Through improved data inputs to simulation models • To better plan and preserve freshwater resources on the planet
