Call for NASA-MSU Award Applications
With support from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and Michigan
State University (MSU), NASA-MSU Professional Enhancement Awards are given to students,
postdocs, and junior researchers (e.g., assistant professors) to cover expenses associated
with attending the meeting of US-IALE (U.S. Regional Association of the International
Association for Landscape Ecology), which will be held during April 7-11 in Fort Collins,
Colorado, USA (http://www.usiale.org/annual-meeting.html).
The application materials include a cover letter, application form, abstract (as it was
submitted to the US-IALE meeting site), resume/CV, and budget. 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 (environmental and
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
<http://csis.msu.edu/research/publications/integration-across-metacoupled-world> .
Topics may include applications of the telecoupling framework or metacoupling
<http://csis.msu.edu/research/publications/integration-across-metacoupled-world>
framework to address issues across landscapes or coupled human and natural systems (e.g.,
dynamics, pattern, process, structure, function, and sustainability). For more information
about telecoupling or metacoupling
<http://csis.msu.edu/research/publications/integration-across-metacoupled-world> ,
please see http://csis.msu.edu/telecoupling. For more information about coupled human and
natural systems, see: Science Magazine
<http://csis.msu.edu/research/publications/complexity-coupled-human-and-natural-systems>
and AMBIO
<http://csis.msu.edu/research/publications/coupled-human-and-natural-systems> .
Applicants from around the world (except former award recipients) are encouraged to
apply.
The application deadline is January 7, 2019.
