Message-ID: <3CC023D8.3060001@montana.edu> Dear Colleagues and Friends, I'd like to take the opportunity to launch this listserv with a note of thanks to all the speakers and participants at the Integrating Education in Biocomplexity Research workshop. I hope the breadth of experiences at the workshop--formal talks, activities, posters, informal conversations and networking--will prove to be useful as you move ahead with your own education and outreach missions. I would like to encourage you to use this forum as a means to continue this good work. This is a great opportunity to maintain and extend contacts, to solicit help and information, and to share new advances and post opportunities. Also, if you haven't had a chance to do so, please visit the accompanying biocomplexity website at: dlesecommunity.carleton.edu Many of the resources we presented at the workshop are posted there: information from NSF, links to the biocomplexity projects and supporting URLs, tips on partnering, dissemination, and assessment. I hope to continue to build this resource base, so please send any additional contributions and suggestions to me at: mogk at montana.edu. We should also extend a special note of thanks to the NRC staff who made the workshop possible--Kerry, Valerie, Bridget, Jay, Robert (and I'm sure, others), and to NSF for their sponsorship. I trust you have all had a safe journey home. Now to keep the momentum going! With best wishes, Dave Mogk Professor of Geology Montana State University Bozeman, MT 59717 (406) 994-6916 mogk at montana.edu From weilercs at whitman.edu Mon Apr 22 13:41:53 2002 From: weilercs at whitman.edu (Susan Weiler) Date: Mon, 22 Apr 2002 13:41:53 -0700 Subject: [Biocomplexity] Climate Change Symposium for Recent PhDs Message-ID: ******************************* Please inform your students and colleagues of this opportunity DISCCRS Dissertations Initiative for the Advancement of Climate Change Research http://aslo.org/disccrs/disccrsposter.pdf DISCCRS is a new program for recent PhDs investigating climate change and its impacts. It promotes interdisciplinary interactions among atmospheric, terrestrial and aquatic scientists and fosters links to relevant social science disciplines. The American Geophysical Union (AGU), American Society of Limnology and Oceanography (ASLO), American Meteorological Society (AMS) and Ecological Society of America (ESA) are jointly sponsoring this initiative. The program includes: * DISSERTATION REGISTRY: An online, searchable Ph.D. Dissertation Registry introduces grads to the community and provides a concise overview of recent advances from around the world * E-MAIL DISTRIBUTION LIST: Job and other announcements are transmitted electronically. to recent grads. Messages may be sent to phd at whitman.edu for distribution. * SYMPOSIUM: A capstone symposium fosters international, interdisciplinary understanding and collegial networks. Grads have an opportunity to present their research, meet with agency representatives, and discuss emerging research, education and societal issues. Forty participants will be selected by a committee based on the application materials submitted. Airfare and on-site expenses are subsidized by agencies (NASA and NSF).
