SUMMARY:8th Earth Observation Summer School 2016
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 eighth edition of the series took place from 1st to 12th August 2016 and was titled “8th EO Summer School on Earth System Monitoring & Modelling “. A total of 63 young researchers (Ph.D. students and young post-docs) attended the event. \nThe course addressed issues related to remote sensing\, Earth system modelling and data assimilation. The topics included urban areas\, atmospheric composition\, surface temperature\, oceanography\, land surface deformation\,  climate and ecosystem modelling\, open source software and citizen generated content\, among others. \nThe programme also included hands-on computing practicals and poster sessions. \n  \nLECTURERS: \n\nMaria Brovelli (Politecnico di Milano)\nNektarios Chrysoulakis (FORTH)\nHeather Leson (Qatar Computing Research Institute)\nTim Wright (Leeds University)\nAngela Benedetti (ECMWF)\nBertrand Chapron (Ifremer)\nEberhard Parlow (University of Basel)\nJean-Philippe Gastellu-Etchegorry (CESBIO)\nLorenzo Bruzzone (University of Trento)\nAntonello Provenzale (CNR)\nAmos Lawless (University of Reading)\nMichel Van Roozendael (BIRA-IASB)\n\n  \nCOMPUTING PRACTICALS: \n\nZina Mitraka (FORTH)\nAndrea Minchella (Satellite Applications Catapult)\nLaure Boudinaud (ESA)\nVal Byfield (University of Southampton)\nMichael Foumelis (RSAC c/o ESA)\nChris Stewart (RSAC c/o ESA)\nJose Gomez (University College London)\nNicola Pounder (Assimila)\nAdam El-Said (University of Reading)\nEleni Tzortzi (University of Hamburg)\nPhil Browne (University of Reading)\nKonstantina Rizopoulou (University of Southampton)\n\n  \nAccess here below the full programme and training material (both theory and practicals). \n \n \n
