    12 I left the biomass map in Geotiff and also the veg class map.
       
    13 Biomass map has 11 classes:
       
    14 1:  0-25  Mg/ha
       
    15 2:  25-50

    20 7:   200-250
       
    21 8:   250-300

    27 Let me know if you need more information.
       
    28 We got Jim Tiucker excited about Nicole's abstract. He is going to give us 2003-2005 data hot from his Goddard Oven.

    38 Hi Sassan,
       
    39 
       
    40 
       
    41 I'm writing to ask if I could please have a copy of your Amazon biomass dataset.  Can I ftp it from JPL? - or should I set up an account for you on one of my computers here to transfer it?  I'd like to use it to compare with global model outputs from NCAR.
       
    42 
       
    43 
       
    44 Also, I like the idea of comparing the NDVI with the freeze thaw. It sounds like the trends that Nicole described in her abstract are getting stronger!
       
    45 
       
    46 
       
    47 Cheers,

    50 Hi Nicole,
       
    51 Sorry for this delay. I was rushing from one meeting to another yesterday.  Jim and I talked about the abstract and he agreed to be included  was happy to contribute.
       
    52 He is going to give us the newly processed GIMMS NDVI data including 2005 for our study.
       
    53 He is copied on this email.
       
    54 cheers

    61 Hi Sassan-

    63 I
       
    64 just want to give him a heads up that I'll add him to our poster.
