SUMMARY:ESA Training Course on Arctic Methane and Permafrost 2022
DESCRIPTION:The European Space Agency (ESA) organised an Earth Observation (EO) training course in collaboration with the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). \n \nThe course took place from 19 – 23 September 2022 at the premises of the Andoya Space Centre (ASC) in Andenes\, Norway. \nThe training was designed to promote and disseminate EO data and information-based solutions focussing on Arctic Methane and Permafrost. The programme provided theoretical information followed by practical exercises and featured the use of Satellite data from different missions together with airborne and ground based data together with process modelling. \nThe course was held for researchers\, students\, PhD students and young professionals who use EO technology within their research or work and want to improve their knowledge of remote sensing. 24 students and 11 lecturers attended the summer school. \nMAIN TOPICS: \n\nIntroduction to the ESA NASA Arctic Methane & Permafrost challenge\nArctic ecosystem science\nSAR & optical data focusing on permafrost regions\nActive & passive remote sensing of the atmosphere\nSynthesing Remote sensing\, modelling and in situ observations\nArctic Process Modelling\nScience Communication\n\nThe language of the course was English. Registration to the course was free. Participation was limited and subject to a selection process. \nRequired level of pre-existing knowledge in EO: Basic skills in both remote sensing and Arctic processes. \nCosts: There was course materials\, tea and coffee breaks\, breakfast\, lunch and dinner from Monday to Friday. Accommodation was pre-arranged and covered from Sunday to Saturday. Travel expenses and additional expenses not mentioned above were responsibility of participants. \nRegistrations: 10 June – 15 July 2022. Registration link (https://www.conftool.net/ampac2022). The successful applicants was notified by 01 August\, 2022. Please keep in mind that the course has a limited capacity. \nCertificate: At the end of the course\, participants were be given an attendance certificate. \nAccess here below the draft training course programme. \nPreliminary Programme \n\nFeatured image: Ponds resulting from thawing permafrost in Alaska.
