ARCUS is accepting applications from Masters and PhD students for travel
scholarships to attend the 19th Annual Meeting and Arctic Forum on 23-24
May 2007, in Washington, DC. The focus of this year's Arctic Forum is:
"Water in the Arctic: International Collaborations and Understanding
Environmental Change."
Jointly hosted by ARCUS and the Embassy of Sweden, the Arctic Forum
features a diverse and international range of perspectives on the state
of knowledge of the hydrological cycle in the circumpolar Arctic, gaps
in our knowledge, and research and policy opportunities and priorities.
The travel scholarship competition is open internationally to Masters
and PhD students who are working in a field related to the Arctic
Forum's focus on water and the arctic environment. Scholarships include
airfare, lodging, and per diem. Successful applicants will be expected
to present a poster at the Arctic Forum.
