The Greenland Ice Sheet Ocean Scien
ce (GRISO) network will host the first GRISO Summer School
in Nuuk, Greenland during July 11-23, 2022. The topic is Impacts
of glacier retreat on Greenland coastal margins.
The summer sch
ool will emphasize both Greenland science and building collaboration, commu
nication, and complex problem solving skills. Activities will take place in
the Center for Education in the Natural Sciences, at the Greenland Institu
te of Natural Resources. Participants will learn about the state of science
and techniques in glaciology, ice-ocean interaction, fjord oceanography, c
oastal ecosystems and community response to coastal change, and they will d
evelop skills in cross-discipline collaboration and communication facilitat
ed by experts from Knowinnovation.There will be opportunities to participate
in boat trips and hiking. More broadly, the summer school aims to build a s
trong and healthy early career science network.
The target audience for the summer school is advanced PhD students
and postdocs, and we are able to accommodate approximately 12 students. We
encourage applications from Greenland-based students and underrepresented m
inority groups.
Applications are now open and will clos
e on 11 February 2022.

r school (e.g. on costs, COVID-19, etc) and for how to apply, visit https://griso.ucsd.edu/griso-summer-school-2022/.
