Immediate report of Victoria University of Wellington Antarctic Expedition 1989-90: VUWAE 34

Planning

Planning

This has been carried out at four levels: Event proposals to RDRC; discussions within the VUW Antarctic Research Centre; communications between foreign scientists; and with other NZ events on Erebus.

The International communications are distributed through the year, and concern the expeditions, distribution of data, presentation of results at conferences, joint publications, direction of future work, and the willingness and ability of each National group to do it.

The VUWAE discussions are concerned with finance and grant applications, selection of student research assistants, and the preparation of yearly reports. The discussions with event K 092 concerned the resources and facilities on the mountain, and how to share them without conflict.

The RDRC proposals are the earliest formal plans, but on a continuing project such as IMEEMS are strongly guided by the thinking of the International group on Erebus.
