= The Long Hot Summer of 2012 - An Experiment in Science Collaboration = 
''Come one, come all, to experiment with science collaboration using the RAMADDA tool''

We'll be collecting data, information and other resources related to the "hot" topics this summer, including:
# the derecho of June 29
# the fires in Colorado in June and July
# the drought in Kansas
# the heat waves of May / June / July (take your pick!)
# socio-economic impacts (agriculture, water resources, ...)
