Early Career Scientists (ECS) comprise a significant portion of the SOLAS community. The SOLAS Early Career Scientist Committee (ECSC) is opening a call for new members. The committee’s objectives are to represent this critical group’s unique insights and opinions at all SOLAS levels and to provide future-generation scientists with networking and collaboration opportunities.
The SOLAS ECSC welcomes applications from ECS who have received their latest PhD degree within 10 years (with an extension allowance for caregiving leave) as well as PhD students. The committee members are appointed for a 3-year term or until they can no longer be defined as an ESC. Candidates from developing countries, island states, and Oceania are explicitly encouraged to apply. In SOLAS, we seek to build a diverse and unbiased academic culture. We encourage ECS from underrepresented groups in Atmospheric and Ocean sciences (including law, economics and policy aspects) to apply as new members. Expertises from all themes of SOLAS science are encouraged, particularly expertise in polar and coastal systems, data science (AI and Machine Learning applied to marine sciences), and modeling of fundamental biogeochemical processes. The call for (self-)nominations is now open until 9 January 2026. Please send a short bio of your expertise and profile and how you think this can contribute to SOLAS (~300 words) and your CV to Joan Llort (committee chair, joan.llort@bsc.es) and Li Li (SOLAS IPO, lili34@xmu.edu.cn). We look forward to engaging our future committee members! More information on the current SOLAS Early Career Committee can be found here. |
