The 3rd Snow Science Winter School will be arranged 12-18 February 2017 by WSL Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research SLF and Finnish Meteorological Institute at the FMI Arctic Research Centre in Sodankylä, Finland. The school will teach advanced field techniques and relate these measurements to microwave and spectral albedo measurements. The course will consist of field and laboratory measurements combined with theoretical lessons in the classroom.

Any graduate student or post-doc working on snow or in some snow related field, this year especially in remote sensing of the cryosphere, is welcome to participate. Those fields include everybody interested in cryospheric sciences. More information and details for applying: http://www.slf.ch/dienstleistungen/events/snowschool/index_DE. The application will open in September 2016. The course fee is approximately 350 Euro.
