[ECOLOG-L] MCED Award Ecological Modelling
Dear colleagues, We would like to draw your attention to the MCED award for ecological modeling, which is now announced for the fourth time. Young modelers can apply, who finished their bachelor, masters, or PhD degree within the last 3 years. The best nominee will win *500 EUR* (currently about 650$), the following prizes will be MCED textbooks. The intention of the award is to foster the development and application of modern ecological modeling methods that can help to expand the understanding of complex ecological dynamics. With this focus, the MCED award follows the eponymous textbook for ecological modeling which has been published by Springer Publishing House and which provides a curriculum for ecological modeling for students, either for a university course or for self-learning. The MCED editors together with Springer Publishing House invite young ecologists who: - analyze ecological phenomena using ecological modeling approaches in an innovative way. - apply new modeling methods and techniques and thereby contribute to applied or theoretical ecology - use modeling frameworks to bridge the gap between basic science and application enhance the understanding of complex ecological processes and dynamics As application, please mail-in the form which is available on www.mced-ecology.org under the section award. A committee, formed by the editors, the president of the GfÖ (Ecological Society of Germany, Austria and Switzerland) and representatives of the GfÖ Young Modelers Group will decide on the submitted proposals by end of August.The award ceremony will be held during the next GfÖ-Conference in Hildesheim. Detailed information on how to apply and what conditions must be fulfilled can be accessed under http://www.mced-ecology.org/?page_id=941 . Please note, that applications must be mailed in by August 10th 2013 at the latest to aw...@mced-ecology.org best, Hauke Reuter, Fred Jopp and Broder Breckling -- PD Dr. Hauke Reuter Dept.
