WE WILL ORGANIZE AN INTERNATIONAL SUMMER SCHOOL IN GLACIOLOGY TO BE HELD IN MCCARTHY CENTRAL ALASKA FROM 7 17 JUNE 2016. THE WORKSHOP WILL BRING TOGETHER 27 GRADUATE STUDENTS AND 8-9 SENIOR SCIENTISTS AIMING TO EQUIP YOUNG SCIENTISTS WITH TOOLS TO ADDRESS THE EXPANDING CHALLENGES IN QUANTIFYING AND MODELING RAPID CHANGES IN GLACIERS AND ICE SHEETS OCCURRING IN RESPONSE TO A WARMING CLIMATE. THE WORKSHOP WILL INCLUDE A COMPREHENSIVE OVERVIEW OF GLACIER PHYSICS AND CURRENT RESEARCH FRONTIERS IN GLACIOLOGY WITH AFOCUS ON REMOTE SENSING OF GLACIERS AND ICE SHEETS INCLUDING HANDS-ON-EXPERIENCE WITH ATREMOTE SENSING DATASETS INCLUDING ICESAT GRACE AND OTHER SATELLITES. ACTIVITIES INCLUDE LECTURE-TYPE PRESENTATIONS EXERCISES COMPUTER PROJECTS GLACIER EXCURSIONS SCIENCEDISCUSSION SESSIONS AND A POSTER SESSION. IN ADDITION THE WORKSHOP WILL PROVIDE UNIQUE OPPORTUNITIES FOR EARLY-CAREER AND SENIOR SCIENTISTS TO NETWORK AND DEVELOP RESEARCH COLLABORATIONS. THE SUMMER SCHOOL WILL BE THE FOURTH OF ITS KIND AFTER HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL SIMILAR WORKSHOPS ORGANIZED BY THE PI IN 2010 2012 AND 2014.
