Hi all,

With Ian and myself travelling and on leave last week, the announcement for the land working group meeting hasn’t been posted.

We have a meeting scheduled for this afternoon at 2pm, please use this Zoom link to connect.

Considering the previously shared calendar invite has gone awry with some calendars, please remove the events from your calendars and replace with these new events (which hopefully will fix any problem):
EDIT: removed attachment since the files were incorrect. See next post for the corrected files.

There is no specific agenda for this afternoon and the meeting is open to any topic attendees want to discuss.

Sorry for the second email of the day, but I have finally found a way to create .ics files on my system that should follow daylight saving changes.

Please use the following new .ics files for your calendars, they are different from the ones sent this morning:
Land Modelling Working Group.ics (1.3 KB)
Land Modelling Working Group 3.ics (1.3 KB)

Each financial year, ACCESS-NRI puts together a work plan. We had a consultation period for community feedback on our priorities for 2025-26 while I was away, and so I fear it was missed by the land community.

Although it might be difficult to add major changes now, there is still a short open window when we can add some community feedback.

If you are interested in what ACCESS-NRI is planning and providing some feedback, you can find our draft work plan here. Consider sending any feedback to myself directly (a message through the forum or an email would work).

Our work plan is indicative of current priorities, but we will stay flexible and adapt to changing priorities along the year if required.

Hi all,

ACCESS Community Workshop Abstracts are due to close this Sunday the 15 June.

https://www.access-nri.org.au/access-community-workshop-2025/

You can present your work in the main workshop (the “parallel sessions”), or in our seperate Land Working Group day(s) (or both). The main workshop has 10 minute and 1 minute lightning talks. Our Land only working group also has some seminar slots if you prefer to present there. So, do submit your latest and get involved in what should be a great week of workshops.
