We are happy to announce that the 2.5 ECTS Ice Core Analysis and Techniques (ICAT) PhD school will run again this year at the Centre for Ice and Climate, Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, Denmark. The Phd school will take place from Sept 25-30th 2017. Deadline for application is June 1st.

ICAT aims to educate a new generation of ice core researchers and foster a collaborative environment for future glaciological projects. This course will educate young scientists regarding new methods developed for the analysis of ice cores with regard to climate research, with dedicated theoretical and laboratory exercise sessions.

We hope that you will help advertise this exciting PhD school to PhD students and junior postdocs who conduct ice core analysis or are users of ice core data (glaciological, oceanographic, climate modelers, earth scientists).
