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.
 Topics may include applications of the telecoupling framework or 
metacoupling
 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,
 please see http://csis.msu.edu/telecoupling. For more information about 
coupled human and natural systems, see: Science 
Magazine
 and 
AMBIO.

Applicants from around the world (except former award recipients) are 
encouraged to apply.

The application deadline is January 7, 2019.

More information about the NASA-MSU Program is available at the web site

Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and Michigan State University 
(MSU). The selected students will have opportunities to meet with some leading 
landscape ecologists at a special dinner gathering, to learn the latest 
developments in landscape ecology at the symposium, and to build professional 
networks with other symposium attendees.


Approximately 20 awards (up to $700 each) will be given for the selected 
students to cover expenses associated with attending the symposium. 
Applications will be judged based on the merits of the applicants' abstracts,
