Two scholarships for the MSc in Geoinformatics (for international students)

Look here, at the page of M.Sc. opportunities for two scholarships for the MSc in Geoinformatics (for international students) in the Institute for Geoinformatics (ifgi), University of Münster, Germany. 

Geospatial Technologies supporting the new sustainable development agenda of UN

On September 25th 2015, countries adopted a set of goals to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all as part of a new sustainable development agenda of UN.
Each goal has specific targets to be achieved over the next 15 years.
A list of actions has been initiated by UN.

GisBioEnviNet will be a supporter of these activities by contributing with knowledge issues, best practices, innovative advancements and more, promoting the extra value derived through applications of Geospatial Technologies (GIS, Remote Sensing, UAVs, GPS, Smartphone Applications, etc.) and their analytics to the framework of activities of the Sustainable Development Goals of UN.

Earth Stewardship Initiative (ESI)

Earth Stewardship Initiative (ESI), a large-scale demonstration project linking environmental stewardship through applied ecological research to community-based planning and outreach in Baltimore. This multidisciplinary initiative seeks to increase research opportunities and the relevance of ecologists in urban planning and design, while supporting community interests.

Providing insight to future sustainable perspectives!

New M.Sc., Ph.D. and Post-doc funding opportunities!!!

After a long time, ongoing activities stimulate me to inform about
new M.Sc., Ph.D. and Post-doc funding opportunities related with GIScience!!!.

Be careful for the deadlines!!!

All sources are provided by ECOLOG-L and I thank them for that.

You could find the new calls in the comprehensive pages:

For M.Sc. opportunities:

-Project title: Spatial ecology of seaducks in relation to key habitats in southern New England by the University of Rhode Island.

 A graduate assistantship is available at the M.Sc. or Ph.D. level to study the distribution, abundance, and movement patterns of selected seaducks in offshore habitats in southern New England during the bird’s winter and staging periods. Satellite radiotelemetry will be combined with extensive boat-based and aerial-based surveys to determine..., for more, please see here...

For Ph.D. opportunities:

-Funded PhD Opportunity in Conservation Biology at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.
Applications are invited for a NSF-funded PhD graduate assistantship in conservation biology at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Research will focus on geospatial analysis and modeling of species distributions under climate and land-use change. For more, please see here...



For Post-doc opportunities:

-Funded Postdoc Opportunity in  Mathematical Modeling of Dengue Virus Epidemiology Research Training Group (RTG) in the Mathematical Sciences at North Carolina State University.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: We are searching for a postdoc interested in working on two NIH-funded projects that will build, test and refine stochastic, spatially explicit, simulation models that link insect population dynamics and genetics with human disease epidemiology. For more, please see here...

NASA for Kids, Students, Parents and Teachers

NASA 4 ALL !!!

Our Solar System

Inspiration, Knowledge and Respect for the final frontiers of our solar system (and not just for this one!!!).
Amazing approaching to the planets of our solar system through our PC, laptop or tablet! (visit the previous link to see!!!).

Many congratulations to NASA's scientists and pioneers of space exploration!
Advancing new perspectives for knowledge of our EARTH through Space and related technologies by NASA, especially for the future hope of this planet: kids!
