A U.S. GLOBEC Georges Bank Phase 4B Scientific Investigators' meeting was held on October 2 - 3, 2006. This two-day meeting was held at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution's Quissett Campus, Clark Laboratory.

The purpose of the meeting was to bring together investigators early in this final synthesis phase of the GLOBEC NWA program in order to coordinate efforts and review program goals. The specific goals of the meeting were to: 1) have researchers present an overview of their Phase 4B project together with any early results, 2) establish communication links and needs among projects, and 3) discuss the phase 4B projects within the context of the overall goals of the GLOBEC NWA program.
