    AGU Fall Meeting
    San Francisco, California

Ice Core Young Scientists (ICYS) announces a call for applications for
travel grants to the American Geophysical Union (AGU) Fall Meeting. This
meeting will convene 12-16 December 2016 in San Francisco, California.

ICYS will be providing a limited number of travel grants to early career
researchers attending the 2016 AGU Fall Meeting. The funds are being
provided by the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR)
Standing Scientific Group on Physical Science. Awards are intended to
help with travel expenses for presenting authors whose research focuses
on or relates to ice cores.

There will be 10 awards of $200 each.

Eligibility requirements include:

  • Applicant is first author on and presenter of a poster or talk at AGU,
  • Applicant is an early career researcher in a field related to ice core
    science, and
  • Applicant is in need of financial assistance.

Due to the proximity of the meeting, quick turnaround of applications is
expected.

To apply, complete the online form available at:

  1. Graduate and Postdoc Assistantships
    Remote Sensing Hydrology
    NASA Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment
    Multiple Locations

Researchers associated with the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA) Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE)
program announce a call for applications for graduate and postdoctoral
assistantships in remote sensing hydrology. These full-time
assistantships are open to U.S. and non-U.S. applicants.

Projects will be collaborative and assistantships may be based at any of
the participating institutions.

Participating institutions include:

  • The University of California Los Angeles in Los Angeles, California;
  • Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island;
  • The University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill in Chapel Hill, North
    Carolina; and
  • The University of Massachusetts Amherst in Amherst, Massachusetts.

Graduate and postdoctoral researchers are being sought to conduct field,
remote sensing, or modeling surface water studies in Alaska and Canada
to support activities of NASA ABoVE and Surface Water and Ocean
Topography (SWOT). Assistantships are being offered in anticipation of
the forthcoming SWOT satellite mission.

Researchers associated with these projects will be available to meet
with interested applicants at the AGU Fall Meeting, 12-16 December 2016
in San Francisco, California.

Application deadline: Open until filled.
