Phd and post-doctoral positions in ocean-climate modelling, marine palaeoclimatology, and data processing
by Damaris Waigwa, last updated: 03-Jul-2009 02:04 PM
GATEWAYS invites applications for 15 Early-Stage Researchers (ESR) at the PhD student level 3 Experienced Researchers (ER) at the post-doctoral level The GATEWAYS project conducts interdisciplinary climate change research on the ocean circulation and its linking with climate processes on regional to global scales. The project combines modern observations, climate (ocean, atmosphere) modelling and marine palaeoclimatology. GATEWAYS sets out to test the sensitivity of the ocean circulation to changing climates of the past. It will assess the dynamics of the ocean circulation as a function of climate change; the influence of ocean circulation on continental climate; and the impact of inter-ocean water transports on the basinwide overturning circulation. The project provides training in laboratory-based analytical protocols and instrumentation, data processing and management, and numerical climate modelling. Complementary skills training focuses on project management and communication techniques. Trainees receive an integrated interdisciplinary grounding in the marine and climate sciences; proficiency in analytical procedures, climate modelling and statistical data processing; managerial skills to design and carry out research in an efficient and pragmatic way. An information package providing project overview and application information is available at the Institut de Ciència i Tecnologia Ambientals of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona at www.uab.cat/icta(Application deadline 30th September 2009)

This archive contains static duplicate copies of GEF IW project websites. The archive ensures that all documents, data, and other material generated during the operation of GEF IW projects is not lost after project termination but is maintained and readily accessible for the long-term.
The International Watersheds Initiative: Implementing a New Paradigm for Transboundary Basins
by Damaris Waigwa, last updated: 02-Jul-2009 08:17 AM
To this end, the IJC has developed and begun implementing its International Watersheds Initiative (IWI) over the past decade. The IWI was created on the premise that water resource and environmental problems can be anticipated, prevented, or resolved at the local level. Rather than simply measuring the quantity or quality of border lakes and rivers in isolation, the IWI promotes an integrated ecosystem approach to watershed preservation that acknowledges the complex interrelationships in the entire watershed.

Twelfth International Training Workshop on Wadi Hydrology
by Damaris Waigwa, last updated: 30-Jun-2009 10:34 AM
The aim of this course is to provide, link and facilitate science and innovation in watershed management in order to enhance and improve sustainable resource management in arid environments. Its overall objective is to provide participants with knowledge and tools using the state of art technique in water resources management in wadi systems. It will also raise their capacity and increase their awareness of natural hydrological process of arid watersheds and wadi systems, resulting in providing best management practices and measures to avoid land degradation and desertification of arid watershed. It will also promote the applications of the IWRM tools in the arid regions.
