Data management and analysis, large-scale computation and modeling, and hardware and software infrastructure profoundly affect the research capabilities of all AGU disciplines. The Earth and Space Science Informatics Focus Group has established the new Leptoukh Lecture to recognize advances in these fields and their contributions to Earth and space science. Named in honor of the late Dr. Greg Leptoukh, a pioneer in satellite data quality and provenance, the Leptoukh Lecture aims to identify and support achievements in the computational and data sciences.
