Dear colleague,
We present you the next edition of the Ramon Margalef Summer Colloquia, to be carried out from 6th to 10th July 2015 in the Marine Sciences Institute in Barcelona (Spain).
The topic this year is: “Patterns and processes in boundary marine ecosystems”.
This Colloquium will include theoretical and practical activities, all around this central topic, as well as group discussion sessions.
It is addressed to advanced doctoral students and recent PhDs, and it is jointly organized by the Institute of Marine Sciences ( http://www.icm.csic.es/) and the Catalan Association of Oceanographers ( http://www.acoio.org), with the institutional support of the Government of Catalonia.
For further information please visit the web page of the Colloquia at http://www.acoio.org/margalef-summer-colloquia/ or write us.
You can also see a short video of the last edition with lecturers’ and students’ opinions: https://youtu.be/Mlyfgt1bN_E
We will appreciate the maximum diffusion of this announcement.
Best regards,
Dear colleagues, FYI
Beginning on summer 2013, the Institute of Marine Sciences (ICM – CSIC, Barcelona) started the Ramon Margalef Summer Colloquia, a series of annual two-week summer encounters aimed at recent PhDs and advanced graduate students. Its main objective is to explore special topics of the Earth System, promoting the exchange of ideas between young and experienced researchers.
The central topic of the colloquium is planned to change every year. Since this summer 2014 is the 10th anniversary of Ramon Margalef’s pass away, we would like to make this year’s colloquia very special, and the topic, exceptionally, will cross the marine boundary to reach a planet view, under the motto: “What Ecology can learn from natural and human-induced disturbances – A cross-system view”. The colloquia will include theoretical and practical activities, all within this central topic, as well as group discussion sessions.
The principal aim of this Colloquia is to enhance the exchange of ideas and to promote imaginative thinking by bringing together ecological knowledge from experts on terrestrial, limnetic and marine systems. Substantial interest has arisen during the last 20 years on global studies in the context of future scenarios. Despite this recognition, very few universities have courses considering cross-system approaches and even fewer international forums have been dedicated to merge experts on the ecology of different systems.
Dates and venue: 7th July to 18th July 2014, Barcelona (Spain)
Edition 2014: "What Ecology can learn from natural and human-induced disturbances – A cross-system view"
