Hola,

Lamentablemente habia un error en el link a la pagina de
inscripcion al
Curso. Noten que la correcta es:
http://agenda.ictp.it/smr.php?2175

Aprovecho para recomendarles que todos aquellos que esten en
la Facultad y
quieran cursarlo en forma regular, por favor anotense de
todas maneras en
el sitio del ICTP por cuestiones organizativas. Aclaro
tambien que el
limite de edad que se encuentra en el anuncio es una
politica del ICTP que
solo se aplica para aquellos que no viven en Buenos Aires y
solicitan
fondos para participar.

Saludos

"THE 2010 SOUTHWESTERN HEMISPHERE WORKSHOP SERIES ON CLIMATE
CHANGE: CO2,
THE BIOSPHERE AND CLIMATE"

School of Exact and Natural Sciences, University of Buenos
Aires, Buenos
Aires, Argentina, 15-26 March 2010

ORGANIZERS: I. Orlanski (NOAA/GFDL,Princeton University,
USA), C. Vera
(FCEyN/University of Buenos Aires,CONICET, Argentina)

Co-sponsored by ICTP, GFDL/NOAA, Princeton University and
the
FCEyN/University of Buenos Aires

Participant registration deadline: 15 DECEMBER 2009
Applications are to be submitted online through the activity
webpage
http://agenda.ictp.it/smr.php?2175

Participation:
The workshop is mainly intended for young researchers and
PhD students
working in the areas of Physics, Chemistry, Atmospheric
Physics and
Dynamics, Climatology and Oceanography, from Central and
South America
countries that are members of the United Nations, UNESCO or
IAEA. The
principal objective of the ICTP is to help researchers from
developing
countries through a programme of training activities within
a framework of
international cooperation. Participants should have an
adequate working
knowledge of English. Due to budget limitations, every
effort should be
made by candidates to secure either total or partial support
for their
expenses. However, limited funds are available for some
participants who
are nationals of, and working in, developing countries, and
who are not
more than 45 years old. Participants are required to take
part in all
aspects of this activity for its entire duration. There is
no registration
fee.

Workshop motivation:

The topic of Carbon cycle selected for the 2010 workshop is
one of the
important and relevant links to climate change, and it is
the focal theme
of this year's series. The concentration of CO2 in the
atmosphere has
risen from close to 280 parts per million (ppm) in 1800, at
first slowly
and then progressively faster to a value of 367ppm in 1999,
echoing the
increasing pace of global agricultural and industrial
development. This is
known from numerous, well replicated measurements of the
composition of
air bubbles trapped in Antarctic ice. Atmospheric CO2
concentrations have
been measured directly with high precision since 1957; these
measurements
agree with ice-core measurements, and show a continuation of
the
increasing trend up to the present. Atmospheric CO2 is,
however,
increasing only at about half the rate of fossil fuel
emissions; the rest
of the CO2 emitted either dissolves in seawater and mixes
into the deep
ocean, or is taken up by
terrestrial ecosystems. Uptake by terrestrial ecosystems is
due to an
excess of primary production (photosynthesis) over
respiration and other
oxidative processes (decomposition or combustion of organic
material).
Terrestrial systems are also an anthropogenic source of CO2
when land-use
changes (particularly deforestation) lead to loss of carbon
from plants
and soils. Nonetheless, the global balance in terrestrial
systems is
currently a net uptake of CO2. For the past decade, the
major focus of the
research has been on the fate of carbon dioxide emitted to
the atmosphere
by fossil fuel burning and changes in land use. For the last
few years,
scientists
have developed earth systems models to estimate the carbon
cycle in the
present environment and projection of future climates when
higher
concentration of atmospheric CO2 will be encountered.
