Descripción del proyecto
Formación de investigadores noveles para comprender mejor el cambio climático en la Antártida
El nuevo proyecto europeo de perforación de hielo Beyond EPICA, que comenzó en 2019 con el objetivo de extraer el testigo de hielo antártico más antiguo, ofrece datos científicos nuevos y exclusivos acerca del cambio climático. El proyecto financiado con fondos europeos DEEPICE llevará a cabo un programa que ofrecerá una formación innovadora en instrumentación, análisis de testigos de hielo, herramientas estadísticas y modelización glaciológica y climática a una nueva generación de quince investigadores noveles. El proyecto aprovechará la experiencia adquirida en Beyond EPICA y permitirá a los investigadores noveles llevar a cabo proyectos de investigación individuales, centrándose en un aspecto analítico o de modelización en un entorno interdisciplinar e intersectorial estable. Los investigadores noveles participarán activamente en la mediación científica en el ámbito del cambio climático, teniendo en cuenta la función de una metodología de modelización de datos combinada.
Objetivo
"DEEPICE aims to train a new generation of European researcher (15 ESRs) working on scientific issues related to climate change in Antarctica by taking advantage of the unique scientific dynamic of the new European ice drilling ""Beyond EPICA"" which started in 2019 to extract a 1.5 million years old Antarctic ice core. The consortium gathers complementary expertise in instrumentation (for field conditions in extreme conditions or in the laboratory for the precise analysis of small ice samples), statistic tools as well as glaciological and climatic modeling from 10 different countries. The ESRs will carry out their individual research projects with a focus on an analytical or modeling subject in a strong interdisciplinary and intersectoral environment keeping in mind the importance of a combined data-model approach and with an active participation in science mediation in the field of climate change. The DEEPICE project will set up an innovative training program allowing the trained ESRs to acquire essential core and additional skills in instrumentation, ice core analysis, statistics and modeling, as well as a wide range of soft skills fostering their career perspectives. Especially, a thematic school will allow students to get in touch with different scientific mediators, publishers, journalists and political advisers. The research and training program gives an important place to scientific mediation and communication of obtained results to the general public and more specific stakeholders. After having completed the training, DEEPICE’s ESRs will be fully equipped for engaging in academic and non-academic careers related to glaciology, climate change, geophysics and instrumentation in geoscience."
