SOOS webinar and ECR call for leadership in WGs

Posted by mmaheigan 
· Tuesday, May 5th, 2026 

SOOS & APECS are seeking Early Career Researchers (ECRs) to join the leadership of several Regional Working Groups:

    • Amundsen and Bellingshausen Sector (ABS)
    • Ross Sea
    • West Antarctic Peninsula and Scotia Arc (WAPSA)

This role helps connect observations, data & people across regions while contributing to coordination, communication, and community building in Southern Ocean science.

You’ll also gain:
– international network connections
– experience in science coordination & leadership
– potential contributions to publications

Deadline: 18 May 2026
Apply
