2002

GSP consisted of: Doug Nychka, Elizabeth Rothney, Timothy Hoar, Sarah Streett, and Thomas Bengtsson. Several members completed their terms with GSP: Hee-Seok Oh, Enrica Bellone, and Brandon Whitcher. Eric Gilleland (CSU PhD student) now works in RAP, and Uli Schneider (CU PhD student) works part-time with GSP. We also had weekly collaborative visits from Craig Johns (CU-Denver), Steve Sain (CU-Denver), and Thomas Lee (CSU); mostly in the latter third of the year.
