>
> Dear colleagues,
>
> As you may know we have launched recently a new initiative: The
> Changing
> Earth Science Network. Its objective is to provide support to young
> researchers who have a doctoral degree and who would like to initiate
> a
> scientific career in the context of Earth Science. The selected young
> researchers will undertake cutting edge research to respond to the new
> scientific challenges of the Living Planet Programme.
>
> You can find the call for proposals at:
> http://dup.esrin.esa.int/STSE/news/news157.asp
>
> In this context, the initiative aims at:
> Contributing to the scientific advancement in Member States
> towards the
> achievement of the new 25 strategic challenges of the Living Planet
> Programme.
> Fostering the use of ESA EO data by the Earth science community
> maximising
> the scientific return (in terms of scientific results and
> publications) of
> ESA EO missions;
> Contributing to consolidate a critical mass of young scientists in
> Europe
> with a good scientific and operative knowledge of ESA EO missions,
> assets
> and programs;
> Preparing for the future by fostering the development of a dynamic
> research network in ESA Member States addressing key areas of
> relevance
> for ESA missions and the ESA science strategy;
> Enhancing interactions, exchanging know-how and allowing cross
> fertilisation between ESA and Earth science laboratories, research
> centres
> and universities.
>
> With this call for proposals, we plan to select and co-finance up to
> 10
> projects of 2 years duration proposed by scientists at post-doctoral
> level
> through their Host Institutions.
>
> For selected Project proposals, ESA will place a contract with the
> Host
> Institution for a maximum budget of 40 KEuro per year as a co-funding
> contribution to a standard post-doctoral position. The Host
> Institution shall
> co-finance and provide a post-doctoral contract to the candidate to
> undertake
> the research activity proposed. The University shall contribute with,
> as a
> minimum, 30% of the overall cost for the two years.
>
> As part of the contract with the Host Institution, ESA will also
> support with
> an additional maximum amount of 2.000 Euro the participation of the
> selected
> Candidate to international conferences in order to present the
> research work.
>
> The initiative incorporates as an option the possibility to carry out
> a
> research period (of duration from 6 to 12 months) in ESA
> establishments as
> visiting scientists. During this period, selected candidates will
> work in
> close collaboration with ESA staff (in quality of mentor) to complete
> part of
> the proposed work.
>
> The call for proposals and its documentation has been published on
> the STSE
> Web Site (www.esa.int/stse).
>
> Proposals must be sent by e-mail to: EOScience@... not later than
> 16/01/2009.
>
> I would appreciate very much if you could disseminate this note and
> inform of
> this opportunity to your main contacts in the scientific community so
> that we
> may collect a good set of potential good projects for 2009.
>
> Thank you in advance for your support
