After 26 years as the climatologist for INSTAAR, the Mountain Research Station, and Niwot Ridge LTER (NWT), Mark Losleben is moving on towards bigger and better things. Mark has accepted a position as the executive director of the new National Phenology Network (NPN).

Mark has outlasted almost everyone on the Ridge except Nel Caine. Most of us that are involved with the MRS and NWT LTER thought we would be long gone while Mark still clambered up Niwot Ridge on a daily basis.

Mark tentatively starts his new position on 1 January 2007. We wish him the best of luck. Mark leaves some awfully big shoes to fill.
