BCCR Workshop: The Lofoten Basin Eddy in a Regional Context: from Physics to Ecosystem Dynamics
Hi everyone,
We are excited to invite you to an exciting workshop on The Lofoten Basin Eddy in a Regional Context: from Physics to Ecosystem Dynamics. The workshop aims to promote the discussion on state-of-the-art research, identify key priorities, and coordinate collaborative efforts to advance our understanding of the dynamics and biogeochemistry of the LBE, and its significance for the regional ecosystems. The event will feature speakers representing initiatives such as NorSWOT, NorGlider, and the PROVOLO project. The complete agenda will follow.
When: Wednesday, September 24, 11:30-16:00
Where: BCCR Lecture room, 4th floor
Sign up for lunch latest by Monday, September 15: https://forms.gle/qBUetd3AZf25nrWw5

Best regards,
Lucía on behalf of the LBE consortium
Bjerknes Annual Meeting
The invitation has been distributed to members. Sign up deadline: 14 September.
Bjerknes Climate Prediction Unit Annual meeting 2025
Bjerknes proposal writing class
The Bjerknes Proposal Writing Class (Bjerknes proposal writing training 2) is an offer to scientists at the Bjerknes Centre who plan to submit a project proposal in 2026 and have little or no experience yet in proposal writing. By taking the class, you will consecutively develop your idea into a proposal draft and finally, a complete proposal ready to submit within the deadlines of 2026. This writing class will complement the support you get from your academic supervisor or scientific mentor but cannot replace that kind of support.
Lectures online on zoom. Link to all the lectures: (will follow)
Link to the special seminar: (will follow)
Link to all teaching material: (will follow)
Class format and time effort:
Weekly alternating lectures and writing seminars
Lecture-sessions consist of 1 hour lecture + up to 30 minutes question/discussion online: background and guidelines for a specific proposal aspect, instructions for specific remote work on your proposal;
Writing sessions consist of 1 hour writing on-site: perform remote work, present results and get feedback.
Remote work:
1-2 hours/week remote work on your proposal (in addition to writing seminars)
To be performed by the next class
Individual meetings with assigned adviser and/or scientific mentor on demand
You will get individual written feedback on your remote work from your assigned adviser
Imperfect and tentative individual work is better than no remote work!
Hazards meeting
Out next meeting will be November 7th at 10am.
More information, including a lunch sign-up, will be shared closer to the date, but please mark your calendars now.
If you would like to present your research at the meeting, please contact us. Otherwise, we may reach out to you.
Cheers
Mari and Stijn
