web apecspyrn small 2The "Permafrost Young Researchers Workshop" will be hosted in the context of the Fourth European Conference on Permafrost (EUCOP IV) in Évora, Portugal on 18 June 2014. This workshop is organized in a joint effort of PYRN (Permafrost Young Researchers Network)APECS (Association of Polar Early Career Scientists) and the young researcher representatives of the two projects PAGE21 (Changing Permafrost in the Arctic and its Global Effects in the 21st Century) and ADAPT (Arctic Development and Adaptation to Permafrost in Transition).

During this workshop an activity as part of the Third International Conference on Arctic Research Planning (ICARP III) is planned. ICARP III is a decadal event coordinated by the  International Arctic Science Committee (IASC) aiming at identifying Arctic science priorities for the next decade and it is of particular interest that early career researchers participate in this process.

What we need from you:

During the workshop we will work with identifying permafrost research questions for the next decade. These questions will be discussed and refined during the Permafrost Young Researchers Workshop at EUCOP4. You may submit your questions following the instructions in the link below. There, you can also find more information about ICARP III and how our activity feeds into this process. We invite all early career permafrost researchers, no matter if you are attending the workshop or not to participate in shaping this contribution to ICARP III!

Please, submit your question(s) before May 30th by following this link!
