Organizers invite graduate and post graduate students who are interested in Arctic Science to apply for the 2016 Connaught Summer Institute in Arct ic Science: Atmosphere, Cryosphere, and Climate which will take place from 18-22 July in Alliston, Ontario, Canada.
The Connaught Summer Institu te in Arctic Science: Atmosphere, Cryosphere, and Climate brings together s tudents and established scholars who are engaged in Arctic research, to pro vide an understanding of the Arctic climate and the processes that control it, and to establish an interdisciplinary forum in which they can discuss c urrent challenges and identify emerging research opportunities in this area .
Organizers are pleased to invite applications for the second Connau ght Summer Institute, offered from 18-22 July 2016 in Alliston, Ontario, Ca nada. It is intended for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows engaged in Arctic research. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn from expe rienced researchers in a small and comfortable setting. Students will also participate in professional development activities, engage in a diverse car eer panel discussion, develop strategies for linking scientific knowledge t o public engagement, education and outreach, and present their own research during a poster session.
Topics to be covered include Arctic paleocl imatology, the Arctic climate system, climate modelling, causes of changes in Arctic sea ice, high-latitude snow processes, Arctic aerosols, compositi on-climate interactions, tropospheric halogen chemistry in the Arctic, stra tospheric ozone and chlorine chemistry, the carbon cycle, aerosols and clim ate, atmospheric measurement techniques, Arctic archeology, Inuit heritage, and science communications.
Admission to the Summer Institute includ es all on-site food and accommodation. A chartered bus will be available to take attendees to and from downtown Toronto, however, attendees are respon sible for travel between their home institution and Toronto or Alliston.
The Summer Institute is supported by the University of Toronto's Connau ght Fund and builds on the Summer School program developed by the NSERC CRE ATE Training Program in Arctic Atmospheric Science (CREATE-AAS). It is affi liated with three NSERC-funded networks: Probing the Atmosphere of the High Arctic (PAHA), the Network on Climate and Aerosols (NETCARE), and the Cana dian Sea Ice and Snow Evolution (CanSISE) Network. The Summer Institute spa ns the disciplines of physics, chemistry, earth sciences, geography, enviro nmental science, and related areas, and encompasses the use of experimental , field observation, and modelling methodologies to study the Arctic region .
