General information
Improving our knowledge of the ocean requires a new generation of well-trained researchers that are able to combine practical field work with modern methods like remote sensing and modelling. By crossing the Atlantic from North to South, students will get a thorough insight in the fundamental principles of oceanography, climate. Through a joint cooperation between the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI), the University of Galway and the Chair of Climate Sciences, Trinity College Dublin, the Nippon Foundation (NF), and the Partnership for Observation of the Global Ocean (POGO), the NoSoAT will take 20 trainees from multiple countries from Bremerhaven (Germany) to Walvis Bay (Namibia).
For the first time, in addition to the 20 trainee berths, we will also be offering 5 berths for future trainers. Both opportunities are aimed at postgraduate students (Master’s or PhD) working in climate or marine science-related fields. Preference will be given to applicants from low-income countries.
The training will consist of five modules on climate and ocean topics, likely to be Oceanography/Microplastics, Atmosphere and Climate, Marine Business Applications, Molecular Ecology, Bathymetry and Outreach activities. Work on board includes lectures, student presentations and hands-on training in deployment and operation of scientific gear (Rosette sampler with CTD sensors, XBTs, Bongonet, Multinet, and Continuous Plankton recorder), acquisition and processing of the sample material and interpretation of the respective data. All 25 successful fellows will be divided into five groups. These groups of five will rotate through all topics during the cruise, so that by the end of the cruise each scholar will have worked with all teachers and topics.
