6TH INTERNATIONAL YOUNG SCIENTISTS CONFERENCE “WATER RESOURCES: RESEARCH AND MANAGEMENT” (WRRM)(SCHOOL AND WORKSHOP)
Dear colleagues,
We hereby invite you to take part in the 6th International Young Scientists Conference
We hereby invite you to take part in the 6th International Young Scientists Conference
In 2010, NWPI KarRC RAS organized the 1st International Field School “European Great Lakes – Lake Onego”. The event exposed the high significance of interactive information exchange in field research practices.
In 2012, the 2nd International Field School “European Great Lakes – Lake Onego” took place. This event, which has become regular, is an extension of the Institute’s targeted work for training talented youth for a scientific career, carried out in collaboration with Russian and foreign higher educational institutions and research institutes.
In 2013, the 3rd International Workshop “Cross-border catchments: Finland and Russia – the White Sea drainage basin” was organized, including a field trip to the White Sea and a session for young scientists.
In 2014, the NWPI Research and Education Centre, together with NWPI Young Scientists Council and RGS Division in the Republic of Karelia, organized the 4th International Youth Conference and School “Seas, lakes and cross-border catchments of Russia, Finland and Estonia”.
In 2016, the conference and workshop were organized, and included keynote lectures by reputable scientists, oral and poster presentations by Master and PhD students and early career scientists, and provided opportunities for going on field trips to do sampling and instant assaying.
