Applications are now being accepted for the 10th Annual Flux Course, happening July 10th - 21st, 2017 in the Mountain Research Station at Niwot Ridge in Colorado. The course will be offered to 24 graduate students, post-docs and early career scientists working to measure and model fluxes of mass and energy between ecosystems and the atmosphere. Topics will include: flux measurements at the leaf & soil level; modeling leaf CO2 and H2O fluxes; eddy covariance measurements; predictions of fluxes from satellite observations; canopy flux models; assimilation of flux observations and satellite remote sensing data into ecosystem process models; and Bayesian approaches to modeling. Attendees stay at the University of Colorado Mountain Research Station, near Boulder, Colorado, U.S. (dormitory style accommodation). More information about the course is available in this video <http://www.fluxcourse.org/video.html> or on the course website<http://www.fluxcourse.org/>.
Applications are being accepted now through March 10th. Please see the Flux Course website for more details on how to apply: http://www.fluxcourse.org/contact.html Fees: $2850 for course fees, room and board (includes all meals); but you must provide your own means of transportation to Boulder, Colorado.
