Projects for OUUSF collaborations must be submitted
on a Pro Forma to the NERC Isotope Geochemistry Facilities Steering Committee
(NIGFSC). There are two submission dates per calender year. Usually it
makes sense for prospective collaborators to make contact with OUUSF staff
to discuss a project. OUUSF will then arrange for submission to NIGFSC. |
