Dear all
This week is the 15th in the IGS online seminar series and is the first to be presented from the southern hemisphere:
IGS Global Seminar Series:
Wednesday July 29th (+1 in NZ / Australia / Japan)
Christina Hulbe (presenting) University of Otago, NZ for the whole Aotearoa New Zealand RIS programme team
"Calm, cool and collected: Ice, ocean and sediment in the central Ross Ice Shelf"
And please feel free to volunteer to give a future seminar – just drop me an email: don't be shy – both full length and shorter slots are available from late October and beyond…! For short slots – contact Rebecca Schlegel (967901@Swansea.ac.uk) who is co-ordinating those. We'd especially like to encourage speakers to volunteer or be suggested from communities that have so far been under-represented in the series. 😊
If you have any issues getting onto the seminar link please email me and I will trigger zoom to send you your link again.
Please register in advance for the seminars - if you have already registered you should be able to use the same link as last week (check and if it doesn't work, just re-register). Once you have registered please check the link (you should see the waiting room I think). Any issues drop me an email and I'll try and help. There's a short question to answer - please tell me enough to accept you! I'll be doing that manually, so just be kind and make it obvious... (I'm a PhD student with X... or whatever). Using your work email would make my life really easy.
