SUMMARY:3rd Earth Observation Summer School 2006
DESCRIPTION:BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: \nEuropean Space Agency (ESA) organises a series of summer schools on Monitoring of the Earth System to promote the exploitation of Earth Observation EO data across disciplines\, with a specific focus on their assimilation into Earth System models. The Summer Schools last for two-week and are held in ESA/ESRIN (near Rome\, Italy). \nThe third edition of the series took place from 31st July to 11th August 2004 and was titled “Third ENVISAT Summer School“. A total of 65 young researchers (Ph.D. students\, young post-docs) from across the world attended the event. They had a varied background in Earth science disciplines (e.g. meteorology\, oceanography\, biology\, remote sensing\, modelling). \nThe Summer School aimed to train a new generation of scientists in the skills needed to exploit data from the full range of instruments of ESA’s Envisat satellite. The programme focused on observing global change from space\, modelling the Earth’s system and combining data to make forecasts and predictions.  \nA broad spectrum of spectrum of research issues were addressed\,  related to oceans\, atmosphere\, biosphere and cryosphere. The programme also showed how Data Assimilation techniques maximize the scientific and economic value of EO data. \nThe programme included keynote lectures\, hands-on computing practicals and poster sessions. \n  \nLECTURERS: \n\nOlivier Talagrand (LMD)\nHartmut Grassl (MPI)\nMichel Verstraete (JRC IES)\nRicky Rood (University of Michigan)\nBob Su (ITC)\nKeith Haines (ESSC)\nDavid Barber (University of Manitoba)\nAndy Shepherd (University of Edinburgh )\nFilippo Giorgi (ICTP)\nBob Scholes (CSIR)\nPierre Brasseur (LEGI)\nJean-Noel Thepaut (ECMWF)\n\n  \nCOMPUTING PRACTICALS: \n\nVal Byfield (NOC) (Remote Sensing tutorial)\nStefano Migliorini (DARC) (Data Assimilation tutorial)\nAmos Lawless (DARC) (Data Assimilation tutorial)\n\n  \nSCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE: \n\nStephen Briggs (ESA)\nDavid Williams (EUMETSAT)\nAlan O’Neill (DARC)\nCristiane Schmullius (University of Jena)\nJohnny Johanessen (NERSC)\n\n  \nORGANISING COMMITTEE: \n\nOrganising Committee\nPierre-Philippe Mathieu (ESA) (Organiser)\nCathy Morris (SERCO/ESA-ESRIN) (Coordinator)\nCarmen Comparetto (Congrex/ESA-ESRIN) (Hotel liaison)\n\n  \nAccess here below the full programme. \n \n
