CIP’sCIP’s• Propose

– A researcher proposes activities with specific science goals, requiring multiple resources not necessarily under her control (UK web page).

• Coordinate – IHY Discipline Planners review the

proposal to co-ordinate with other CIPs and to link the proposer with representatives for instruments, observatories, and models. The Proposer and facility representatives arrange the details of observation modes, schedules etc. and do the work.

•  • Review

– IHY Universal Process Workshop Planners identify relevant CIPs to start planning summary workshops. These will happen towards the end of 2007 and into 2008, and provide forums for drawing together and reviewing the results from IHY science.
