Dear Colleagues,
Please share the following information with potentially interested

********************************************************************
With support from the U.S. National Science Foundation, the International
Network of Research on Coupled Human and Natural Systems (CHANS-Net,
www.chans-net.org) is pleased to call for applications for the CHANS
Fellowships. The selected CHANS Fellows will participate in CHANS events
organized in conjunction with the AAG (Association of American
Geographers) annual meeting, April 14-18, 2010. They will have
opportunities to interact with active leaders in CHANS research, to learn
the latest developments in CHANS research, and to build professional
networks with other attendees.
Approximately 10 fellowships (up to $1,000 each) will be given for the
selected graduate students, postdoctoral associates, junior faculty
members, and/or other junior researchers in other institutions to defray
expenses associated with attending the meeting. Applications will be
judged on the merits of the applicants' abstracts, financial need, and
professional backgrounds and goals. Former award recipients are not
eligible to apply. Members of under-represented groups are especially
encouraged to apply. All applications must be RECEIVED by October 20,
2009. The selection will be made by the end of November 2009.
