Aims & Goals

PalEON has a lot of moving parts: many people, many projects. The goal of this wiki is to facilitate research coordination within PalEON. This wiki and its subpages are interactive documents that allow users to post progress updates for various projects, create links among projects, develop proposals within the PalEON domain, complete established projects, deposit and store finished products and access and update public data.

This wiki is open to PalEON participants and a login is required. The public PalEON website is located at: http://www.paleonproject.org

Sections

Calendar & Meetings

This section is where upcoming meetings are listed and where meeting notes for completed meetings are stored.

People

This section includes information about who the individual members of the PalEON project are. We welcome all Participants to begin editing their own page. The Administrators (Simon Goring and Jody Peters) will also take care to ensure that the pages are kept up to date as much as possible.

Working Groups

Working Groups briefly describes the main working groups in PalEON. These are fairly static, overarching descriptions that provide the big picture of each group and the members. Anyone can update this as new people join the project and as the projects morph.

Data Management

This section provides policies and procedures for PalEON's data including details about the tools we use to keep track of data/code/manuscripts and how to acknowledge PalEON in scientific publications.

Data and Products

We've created the Data and Products section as a repository for data that is shared within and across Working Groups. This is also where output from analyses conducted from the data are stored for each Working Group. All other wiki sections revolved around keep using organized. This section is the fun part of PalEON, it is where we see results from our hard work!

Papers & Presentations

This section has a lot in it! It is where we keep items related to publications and presentations. This section is a repository for: 1) All papers and presentations from PalEON projects - this information is critical as we prepare our annual reports for NSF! 2) The PalEON1 and PalEON2 NSF proposals and the annual reports. 3) Manuscripts ideas and drafts - once an idea is formulated enough for an outline, be sure to include this information in this section to avoid duplicating efforts when instead there should be collaboration. 4) PalEON related posters and presentations. 5) Newsletters. 6) Figures that may be useful for others as they create posters and presentations. 7) General papers that provide useful information for specific PalEON topics.

Courses and Camps

This section includes details about courses for PalEON grad students and material for Camp PEON.
