Pangaea has both institutional and technical knowledge about the PAM system runs, how the data is used and the needs of ASM.

Remembering Brian Youngs
Pangaea would like to remember and honor Brian Youngs who passed away 3 years ago on March 19 2005 at the age of 28. Brian worked with us and served as a role model for everyone fortunate enough to get to know him. Brian was one of the most intelligent, caring, dedicated and passionate individuals that any of us knew. Brian was a lover of the outdoors and an advocate for care and conservation of the environment. Brian is survived by his wife, Marah; son, Atticus; his parents, Phil and Leslie; sister, Dana; and a large loving group of family and friends.
