Saroma Sea ice School 2026 - Call for application
The Saroma Sea Ice School 2026 will be held from 28 February to 9 March 2026 in Saroma-ko Lagoon, Hokkaido Island, Japan. 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.
