Dear Colleagues, <br>
<br>
<div>As part of the 2020 Fall Meeting of the AGU that will mostly be a virtual meeting, we would like to draw your
<br>
</div>
<div>attention to the session on: </div>
<br>
<a href="https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm20/prelim.cgi/Session/102816">G009 - Reference Frames: Determination, Usage, and Application
</a><br>
<br>
<div><font size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">We welcome papers that discuss the final aspects of the reprocessing in preparation for ITRF2020,
<br>
</span></font></div>
<div><font size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">and we hope each of the techniques can present a status report on where they stand.</span></font><br>

<div><font size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">We welcome papers that discuss innovative results related to the determination of the reference frame,</span></font></span></font><font size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">

<div><font size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">papers that demonstrate who the TRF and its regional manifestations are of applicability to civil society.</span></font></span></font></span></font></div>

and<br>
probably dealing with the difficulties of working remotely away from direct contact with colleagues<br>
and increased responsibilities for care of family members and children who cannot go in person<br>
to school. We hope nonetheless that they will avail themselves of the opportunity to meet as<br>
a community in this Reference Frame session, as it will be really the only forum we will have to<br>
meet as a global community for the entire year, and in advance of what we hope will be an on-time<br>
submission of the contributions for ITRF2020.</span></font></span></font></span></font></span></font></div>
