Hui Shao will be the next IROWG co-chair

Dear IROWG community,

We are very happy to report that Hui Shao (NOAA/Joint Center for Satellite Data Assimilation) will be our next IROWG co-chair.

The official inauguration will take place at the OPAC-IROWG workshop in September.

Thank you to all who participated in the voting process.

And a very big THANK YOU to Sean Healy for his many years of service for the IROWG community!

Sean will still be heavily involved in the preparation of the OPAC-IROWG and CGMS workshops and
then gradually hand over to Hui.

IROWG Rapporteur
