Survey Allocations
Survey Allocations
Following the official end of SCUBA-2 commissioning in September 2011, the JLS teams were invited to write rescoping proposals of their surveys based on the known performance of SCUBA-2. These proposals were received in November 2011 and were reviewed by the JLS Redefinition Group (JLSRG) in January 2012. After considering the recommendations made by the JLSRG, the JCMT Board made the following allocations to the JLS teams, taking the JLS programme through to September 2014.
The total awards are shown in the following table. |
