Application and selection procedure
Applications are invited from research institutes, universities, governmental and non-governmental organizations in Brazil. Candidates to the course are requested to forward their CV’s, along with a statement of their current activities, reasons for requesting training in this field, the candidate’s own research interests, and the relevance of the training to the activities of the trainee’s home institute and/or work.
In the selection of participants, preference will be given to young researchers starting their scientific careers. All participants will be expected to be present in Tamandaré, Pernambuco, for the entire duration of the course. The intention is to transfer knowledge to researchers who will continue to study coastal/marine ecosystems around Brazil into the future, and who will also help train the next generation of local scientists in remote sensing, biological
oceanography, and biogeochemistry.
