The 5th International Baltic Earth Winter School for Young Scientists on “Earth System Science for the Baltic Sea Region” will take place at the Institute of Oceanology of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Sopot, Poland, from 18–22 March 2024.
The interdisciplinary school will provide a broad overview over ongoing research activities on the Earth system in the Baltic Sea region and discuss grand challenges in sciences, for instance as summarized in the Baltic Earth Assessment Reports (BEARs). Focus will be on all compartments of the Earth system such as the atmosphere, ocean, sea ice, land surface, and terrestrial and marine ecosystems.
The goal of the school is to provide an overview of the level of knowledge and to assist in future career choices. Informal meetings and discussions are planned in the evenings. All participants will be given the opportunity to present their research in the form of short talks and to open up for feedback.
The School is open to PhD students and early career scientists (postdocs) in geosciences such as climate science, meteorology, physical, chemical and biological oceanography, hydrology, terrestrial and marine biogeochemistry, marine food web interactions and associated fields.
Application deadline: 10 January 2024
