Dear Critical Zoners! The call for sessions and workshops for Goldschmidt 2019 in Barcelona is now open until 1 November 2018. The number of themes has been reduced for 2019, in an effort to scale back on the overlap of recent years. Please consider proposing a session to Theme 9: Weathering, erosion and the critical zone
Postdoctoral Scholar - Sierra Nevada Research Institute
RECRUITMENT PERIOD
Open September 10th, 2018 through October 10th, 2018
DESCRIPTION
The Council of the International Geoscience Programme (IGCP) held its 3rd Session in February 2018 and evaluated 35 projects consisting of 22 ongoing projects and 13 new proposals. 7 new projects have been approved and 4 projects will be on one extended term, which means they will remain active without funding from IGCP. In 2018, a total of 22 projects will be financed by UNESCO and IUGS.
IGCP is supporting work on the following five themes:
The University of Nevada, Las Vegas Geoscience Department is seeking applicants for its MS and PhD programs for Spring and Fall of 2019.
