DISCCRS http://www.aslo.org/phd.html
DISCCRS (pronounced "discourse") is an interdisciplinary initiative for
recent Ph.D. graduates conducting research related to climate change and
its impacts. The goal is to broaden research interests and establish a
collegial peer network extending across the spectrum of natural and
social sciences, humanities, mathematics, engineering and other
disciplines related to climate change and its impacts. The initiative
includes a public webpage, electronic newsletter, and annual symposia
funded through 2008.
