2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 From: Arianne Snyder <sz4dmcs@xxxxxxxxx> Dear friends and colleagues, You are invited to the *Modeling Collaboratory for Subduction (MCS) RCN Townhall, *to be held virtually *Thursday, May 13, from 2:00 - 3:30 pm* (CDT). The goal of the Townhall is to engage the subduction zone and wider geodynamics community (both modelers and observationalists) to review the current state of affairs of the MCS-RCN and MCS planning and get feedback on emergent plans for a potential MCS implementation. Specifically, we want to evaluate which of the envisioned MCSâ??s core capabilities are of the highest priority to the community and start the discussion of a proposed organizational structure for a future Modeling Collaboratory for Subduction Zone Science. Register for the MCS Townhall here. <https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUld-qvqDMiHtZqhhtGRqXam_RcH_K4qVs4> The Townhall will consist of a 30-minute presentation (with draft slides already available on our MCS Townhall website <https://www.sz4dmcs.org/townhall>), breakout discussions of the four questions listed at the end of the slides, and a summary discussion. *Anyone can provide feedback on the MCS-RCN, MCS implementation, and general comments* before, during, and for a few weeks after the Townhall through our feedback form <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdTELjN5FATvjLqqkNiPtG7EBjqPjWx8Fuw47CVPK8M_5pl8w/viewform> . We hope to see you there, The MCS-RCN Team 2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 ------------------------------
