SUMMARY:7th Earth Observation Summer School 2014
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 seventh edition of the series took place from 4th to 14th August 2014 and was titled “7th EO Summer School on Earth System Monitoring & Modelling “. A total of 72 young researchers (Ph.D. students and young post-docs) from 23 countries attended the event. \nThe course addressed issues related to remote sensing\, Earth system modelling and data assimilation\, as well as the societal and business applications of Earth observation data. It provided participants with an integrated end-to-end perspective going from measurement techniques to end-user applications. \nA broad spectrum of spectrum of topics were addressed\, mainly related to cryosphere\, oceanography\, atmosphere\, land surface and natural disasters: greenhouse gas observations from space\, modelling of ground deformation after earthquakes\, land surface hydrology\, food production in a changing climate and remote sensing of sea ice\, among others. \nThe programme also included hands-on computing practicals and poster sessions\, as well as keynote lectures to help students appreciate how their specific field fits into a broader scientific and political context. \n  \nLECTURERS: \n\nMichael Buchwitz (University of Bremen)\nAnnett Bartsch (Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich)\nAlan O’Neill (University of Reading)\nPierre Briole (CNRS)\nRon Kwok (Jet Propulsion Laboratory)\nShubha Sathyendranath (Plymouth Marine Laboratory)\nAna Iglesias Picazo (Polytechnic University of Madrid)\nSean Healy (ECMWF)\nDavid Lary (University of Texas at Dallas)\nClaude Duguay (University of Waterloo)\nIarla Kilbane-Dawe (AEA)\nJohn Remedios (University of Leicester)\n\n  \nCOMPUTING PRACTICALS: \n\nValborg Byfield (National Oceanography Centre)\nMelanie Ades (University of Reading)\nDavid Poulter (Pelamis Scientific Software Ltd)\nPolly Smith (University of Reading)\nAndrea Minchella (RSAC C/O ESA/ESRIN)\nFabrizio Ramoino (SERCO C/O ESA/ESRIN)\nPhil Browne (University of Reading)\nJavier Amezcua (University of Reading)\n\n  \nAccess here below the full programme. \n \n
