  1. MPOWIR is planning to start a webinar series directed at early to mid-career physical oceanographers. We envision these sessions will include a brief panel-style introduction followed by open discussion on selected topics. Please use the survey link below to help us by identifying topics that are most relevant to you. The survey contains only 2 questions, and should only take about one minute of your time.  http://mpowir.org/get-involved/webinar-series/
  1. The MPOWIR Handbook describes the structure of MPOWIR programs, including logistics and costs, sharing the MPOWIR template for discipline-specific mentoring with a broader audience. This guide is intended to help other sub-disciplines of oceanography and the greater geosciences community in planning their own mentoring programs. Please feel free to share this resource with institutional and international colleagues. http://mpowir.org/resources/handbook/
  1. There are a number of new Career Profiles on the MPOWIR website.  Stop by and read through them, or contribute your own! http://mpowir.org/resources/career-profiles/
