    Applications open for the NF-POGO Centre of Excellence at Alfred Wegener Institute on Helgoland and Sylt, Germany

    Wednesday, 13 February 2019

    We would like to let you know that applications are open for the next Nippon Foundation-POGO Centre of Excellence (NF-POGO CofE) at the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) on the islands of Helgoland and Sylt. The course is open to 10 participants. Trainees must have at least a first degree in science. Preference will be given to applicants who currently hold a position in a research or academic institution in a developing country and anticipate returning to the country after completion of training at the NF-POGO Centre of Excellence at AWI. The 10-month training will promote excellence in integrated, multidisciplinary oceanography at a global scale by emphasizing core skills (e.g. writing, scientific presentations, statistics and experimental design) and specialised scientific topics such as modelling, remote sensing, ocean-atmosphere interactions.

     

    Your application should be submitted by 1 March 2019. Applicants will be notified if they have been selected by end of May 2019. Scholarships will be provided from NF-POGO through the CofE that cover travel, room, board, tuition, and a modest allowance for those students accepted into the programme.

    Tropical Pacific Observing System 2020 (TPOS 2020) Second Report available for review

    Monday, 11 February 2019

    We would like to inform you that the Tropical Pacific Observing System 2020 (TPOS 2020) Project released its Second Report draft for community review. TPOS 2020 released its First Report in 2016 and the Second Report builds on that document. It updates the evolving design of the Backbone observing system, drawing on new research and evidence including feedback received on the First Report, and responds to gaps identified by sponsors of the Project. If you would like to be a reviewer of the Second Report, please find it on the TPOS 2020 website (http://tpos2020.org/project-reports/second-report/), along with the Review Template. The marine biogeochemistry community might be particularly interested to review the contents of Chapter 4: Biogeochemical and Ecosystem Observations.

     

    Please provide all comments by February 28, 2019. Note that this is the ONLY review period for the Second Report. Correspondence and questions should be addressed to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

    A new cookbook for quality control of SOCAT Version 7

    Tuesday, 05 February 2019

    We are happy to inform you that the Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas (SOCAT; www.socat.info) has released an updated cookbook for data quality control procedures. The updated cookbook, which applies from version 7 onward, was prepared by a team led by Siv Lauvset (Bergen, Norway). There is no intention to retrospectively implement the revised quality control criteria for data sets in SOCAT versions 1-6. We also kindly remind you that the deadline for quality control of SOCAT version 7 is 31 March 2019.

    You can download the updated cookbook from the SOCAT site HERE.

    Online lectures on marine data and science openly available from the Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS)

    Monday, 04 February 2019

    The Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) in Australia in collaboration with the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies (IMAS) has developed a series of Marine Data and Science e-lectures that are openly available for all interested users. The lectures are designed to help marine scientists/students learn how to use IMOS ocean observations data in their research. The topic-specific lectures include: ocean primary productivity, the carbon cycle, and ocean acidification, with associated hands-on exercises using real observations to gain experience on how to analyse and interpret the data. While the setting is in Australia, most of the concepts are generic enough to apply to other regions, so the lectures can be freely utilised by others as training material.

     

    You can access the lectures through the Open2U system at: https://open2u.utas.edu.au/Course/4261

    Applications open for biogeochemical sensors training course, 10-19 June 2019, Kristineberg, Sweden

    Friday, 21 December 2018

    IOCCP and BONUS INTEGRAL are thrilled to open online applications (http://www.ioccp.org/2019-training-course) for an international training course "Instrumenting our ocean for better observation: a training course on a suite of biogeochemical sensors". The course will be held at the Sven Lovén Center for Marine Sciences in Kristineberg, Sweden, on June 10-19, 2019. The goal of the course is to further develop proficiency in the use of a suite of biogeochemical sensors and to improve the quality of the data currently generated by autonomous biogeochemical sensors. This intensive, 10-day training course will provide trainees with lectures, hands-on in-situ and laboratory experiences, and informal interactions to improve in-depth knowledge on instrument know-how, troubleshooting, data management, data reduction and quality control.

     

    The course is open for 28 participants, PhD students and early-career researchers with large prospects for utilising the course experience to advance their ongoing or planned research projects and their scientific career in general. Detailed application instructions are available from the course page on the IOCCP website.

     

    Application deadline: 1 February 2019.
