🧊❄️Hey Polarbegeisterte,

es ist so weit, die POLARSTUNDE geht in die nächste Runde! 🤗 Die Deutsche Gesellschaft für Polarforschung (DGP) und wir, die Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS) Germany, laden euch ein, die „Forschung der Extreme“ der deutschsprachigen Polarforschung kennenzulernen.

Am Mittwoch, den 16.10.2024 um 17 Uhr, startet unsere vierte Auflage der POLARSTUNDE mit zwei spannenden Kurzvorträgen zum Thema "The oldest ice" von Frank Wilhelms und Nico Stoll (@awiexpedition) , gefolgt von einer Diskussion.

Seid dabei, diskutiert mit uns und taucht ein in spannende Themen der Polarforschung.

Meldet euch einfach bis spätestens zum Vortag der Veranstaltung per Email an polarstunde@polarforschung.de an. Der Zoom-Link wird euch am Tag der Veranstaltung kostenlos zugeschickt.

Wir freuen uns auf euch!

❄️Meet our board - Sneha❄️
Sneha became a member of the APECS Germany board just this past August.😊 She is one of the national representatives for APECS international and is excited to be involved in all that she can be! 😍

Sneha is currently a doctoral researcher at AWI in Bremerhaven (@awiexpedition) working on the effects of seasonal climate warming 🌡️ on phytoplankton ecophysiology in Kongsfjorden, Svalbard 🌊as part of a year-round ecosystem monitoring study (@yesss.science). For the next year, she will spend most of her time at the Ny-Ålesund Research Station. Previously, Sneha has had field work at Palmer Station, Antarctica 🇦🇶and in the Central Arctic in Baffin Bay.🐻‍❄️

❄️Meet our board – Emma❄️
Emma joined the APECS Germany board this spring and is excited to be involved with our social media channels, among other things. 🤗 She is currently working on her PhD at Technische Universität Braunschweig investigating how oil and gas contaminants impact lakes in the Northwest Territories, Canada using paleolimnological methods. 🇨🇦💧🛢️ Emma has completed 2 field seasons on Northern Ellesmere Island, with some bonus time in Svalbard, but is looking forward to working in a new part of the Arctic, and being involved with APECS! 🐻‍❄️

✨Meet our new APECS Germany Chair Team ✨
Please welcome Alexandra, who will be chair for another term, and Lena and Lukas, who will work as co-chairs. The new APECS Germany Leadership Team has taken over from 1st June 2024.

The work of APECS Germany would not be possible without our board members! We are excited about every new board member, who joined throughout the last term!

🧊❄️Hey Polarbegeisterte,

die Deutsche Gesellschaft für Polarforschung (DGP), das Austrian Polar Research Institute (APRI) und die Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS) Germany laden euch ein, die „Forschung der Extreme“ der deutschsprachigen Polarforschung kennenzulernen. Es gibt zwei kurze und spannende Vorträge!

Am Mittwoch, den 29.05.2024, geben Dr. Birgit Sattler und Sophia Mützel vom Institut für Ökologie der Universität Innsbruck, Österreich, einen Einblick in ihre aktuelle Forschung über Plastik in Polargebieten. Diese gesellschaftlichen Marker haben es bis in die entlegensten Regionen geschafft. Von 17 bis 18 Uhr präsentieren sie „Plastik in den Alpen und den Polargebieten - was kümmert es uns?“, gefolgt von einer Diskussion.

Seid dabei, diskutiert mit uns und taucht ein in spannende Themen der Polarforschung.

Meldet euch einfach bis spätestens zum Vortag der Veranstaltung per Email an polarstunde@polarforschung.de an. Der Zoom-Link wird euch am Tag der Veranstaltung kostenlos zugeschickt.

Wir freuen uns auf euch!

❕Check out our new Blogpost on our Website of the APECS Germany attendance at the EGU 2024. 🤗
The European Geoscience Union (EGU) General Assembly is an always busy conference with many sessions happening at the same time. While the cryosphere sessions are good places to meet other scientists with an interest in the polar regions, they are not the only ones as many other sessions feature interesting cryosphere-related contributions. ❄️
We will give you a small overview of how the conference attendance for an early career scientist can look like. 😉

❗❗ Save the date ❗❗ The 29th Internationa

❗❗ Save the date ❗❗

The 29th International Polar Conference “Dynamic Poles and High Mountain Environments” will take place from 16 to 20 September 2024 at the Mesnerhaus in Rauris, Austria. 🏔️🇦🇹

The conference is jointly organised by the German Society for #PolarResearch (#DGP) and the @austrian.polar.research (#APRI)

Abstract submission deadline is May 17th!

Together with colleagues from Austria, we from APECS Germany are organising a workshop for Early Career Scientists (#ECS) to kick-off the conference and to provide a first #networking opportunity:
How do I get my first or next job in #polarscience ❔
... What do people look for in applications for PhD or PostDoc positions❔
... Which skills are most important❔
.... And how do I find a suitable project❔

After the workshop, we will all go to have dinner together and get to know each other more.

We are looking forward to meeting many of you in Austria!
