May 20-23 the third Meeting of Young Researchers in Earth Sciences (MYRES 2008) will explore the theme "Dynamic Interactions of Life and its Landscape". Our aim is to facilitate the formation of a global network of young scientists who together can tackle issues at the interface of geomorphology and ecology. Through a combination of presentations, poster sessions, and extensive discussions, we will formulate a hypothesis-driven framework for examining geomorphic-ecological feedbacks. MYRES 2008 will be held at Tulane University in New Orleans (USA) to highlight the delicate and multifaceted nature of human-climate-landscape interactions. Following the workshop there will be an optional three days of field trips around the Mississippi Delta. To facilitate participation by a diverse global group of young researchers, MYRES will cover airfare and lodging costs for all attendees. If you are you an early career scientist interested in linking physical and biological processes on the Earth's surface, then please consider applying to attend MYRES 2008. For further details, and an online application form, please visit our website: http://www.myres.org/myres3/index.html We will be accepting applications from December 1, 2007 through January 18, 2008, and successful applicants will be contacted by February 6th. If you are a senior scientist (tenured faculty or senior lecturer), please forward this announcement to any current or former PhD students or post-docs who may be interested. Sincerely, The MYRES 2008 Organizing Committee (Co-Chairs: Liam Reinhardt, Douglas Jerolmack) --------------------------------------------------------------------- MYRES 2008 Website: http://www.myres.org/myres3/index.html MYRES Website: http://www.myres.org/ |
