POGO: Taking the Pulse of the Global Ocean
For more than a decade, the Partnership for Observation of the Global Oceans, POGO, has served as a forum for leaders of major oceanographic institutions around the world to promote global oceanography, particularly the implementation of international and integrated global ocean observing systems. POGO is an international network of collaborators who foster partnerships that advance efficiency and effectiveness in studying and monitoring the world’s oceans on a global scale. Through its efforts, POGO has promoted observations underpinning ocean and climate science, interpreted scientific results for decision makers, provided training and technology transfer to emerging economies, and built awareness of the many challenges still ahead.

Summer training course at Cornell University |
 |

|
A two-week summer training course, from June 4 to 18, 2010, at Cornell University is being offered to marine scientists who have modest or no prior experience with satellite remote sensing techniques. The course is highly methods oriented and intended to give participants the practical skills needed to work independently to acquire, analyze and visualize data sets derived from a wide variety of ocean satellite sensors (e.g., SeaWiFS/MODIS/MERIS, AVHRR, SeaWinds on QuikSCAT and Topex/Jason/ERS1/2). The course will focus a lot of attention on developing IDL programming skills for effective data analysis. For more information about the course and application instructions, visit www.geo.cornell.edu/ocean/satellite. |

PhD Position (fish stress evolution and transcriptomics) at The Leibniz-Institute of Marine Sciences |
|
|
|
Thursday, 21 January 2010 15:09 |
The PhD project is one of 8 interrelated projects within the project cluster NEMO (=”Nachhaltige Ernährung mit Marinen Organismen” – sustainable use of aquatic organisms). We are seeking a highly motivated and enthusiastic candidate who is expected to pursue a doctoral thesis aside from working within the project. The holder of the position should perform transcription analysis using state-of-the art tools (Q-PCR, 454 transcription profiling, array technology) in turbot. Behavioral and physiological assays will partly be provided by other projects within the cluster. Our goal is to identify in controlled experiments the impact of stressors such as crowding, food types and temperature on fish behavior and welfare, and its interaction with population origin. Another focus will be the genetic effects of domestication on transcription patterns. Through the cluster of excellence ‘The Future Ocean’ access to high throughput genomic facilities is provided.
