Dear Colleagues and Friends,
I would appreciate your help in sharing the following opportunity with
potentially interested individuals (e.g., students, postdoctoral
fellows, junior faculty and researchers). Many thanks!
*** NASA-MSU Professional Enhancement Awards ***
With support from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration
(NASA) and Michigan State University (MSU), NASA-MSU Professional
Enhancement Awards
<https://www.canr.msu.edu/csis/education/nasa_msu_award/> are given to
students, postdocs, and junior researchers (e.g., assistant professors)
to cover expenses associated with attending the meeting of IALE-North
America <https://www.ialena.org/annual-meeting.html> (North America
Regional Association of the International Association for Landscape
Ecology), which will be held in Athens, Georgia, April 26-30, 2026. This
will be the 25th anniversary of the NASA-MSU Program.
The application materials include a cover letter, application form,
abstract, resume/CV, and budget. *The abstract should also have been
submitted to the IALE-NA meeting website
<https://www.ialena.org/abstracts.html>*. Applications are judged based
on the merits of the applicants' abstracts, financial needs, and
professional backgrounds and goals.
Presentations (oral or poster) should focus on telecoupling
<https://www.canr.msu.edu/telecoupling/> (environmental-socioeconomic
interactions over distances, such as human and animal migration, species
dispersal, species invasion, disease spread, sound/noise transmission,
spread of pollutants and wastes, trade of goods and products, flows of
ecosystem services, environmental and hydrological flows, foreign
investment, technology transfer, water transfer, and tourism) and/or
metacoupling
<https://www.canr.msu.edu/resources/national-science-review-leveraging-the-m…>.
Topics may include applications of the telecoupling framework
<https://www.canr.msu.edu/resources/framing-sustainability-telecoupled-world>
or metacoupling framework
<https://www.canr.msu.edu/resources/integration-across-metacoupled-world>
to address issues across landscapes or coupled human and natural systems
(e.g., dynamics, pattern, process, structure, function, and
sustainability). For more information about coupled human and natural
systems, please see: Science
<https://www.canr.msu.edu/resources/complexity-coupled-human-and-natural-sys…>
and Ambio <https://www.canr.msu.edu/csis/archive/chans_ambio_2007.pdf>.
Awardees will also have opportunities to interact with some leading
scientists and other meeting attendees, including a special dinner on
April 27, and telecoupling / metacoupling workshop #4
(_https://www.ialena.org/workshops-2026.html
<https://www.ialena.org/workshops-2026.html>_ ) and symposium #5
(https://www.ialena.org/symposia-2026.html
<https://www.ialena.org/symposia-2026.html>).
Students, postdocs, and other junior scholars (e.g., assistant
professors) from around the world (except former award recipients) are
welcome to apply. Please apply here
