The Saroma Sea Ice School is an interdisciplinary winter field school for early-career scientists - primarily Ph.D. students, but also open to master’s students and early postdocs - focused on the interactions among sea ice, snow, clouds, and aerosols in polar regions. Through a combination of classroom lectures, expert-led workshops, and hands-on fieldwork (including sea ice coring and atmospheric sampling), participants will explore the key processes that shape the Arctic and Antarctic climate systems. Organised by the BEPSII, CIceClouds, and CATCH working groups, the program aims to equip the next generation of sea ice researchers for Antarctica In Sync and the International Polar Year among other international polar initiatives.
The application is open and closes at the end of September 2025.
