Earth and Climate Science at IISER Pune is organising:
A Workshop on
Thermodynamics in the Earth Sciences
by Prof. Axel Kleidon [Max-Planck-Institut für Biogeochemie, Jena]
Dates: October 10-15, 2019
Venue: ECS Computational Laboratory, IISER Pune
About: Axel Kleidon leads a research group in Biospheric Theory and Modelling at the Max-Planck-Institute for Biogeochemistry, Jena, Germany. He uses thermodynamics to quantify natural energy conversions within the Earth system and their limits and applies this approach to understand atmosphere-biosphere interactions, Earth system responses to global change, and the natural limits of renewable energy.
In addition, there would be lectures by IISER Director Prof. Jayant Udgaonkar, Prof. Shyam S. Rai and Prof. V. K. Gaur.
We would be happy to fund travel, accommodation, and food for up to 5 students from all over India.
Please contact Argha (argha@iiserpune.ac.in) or Utsav (utsav@iiserpune.ac.in) for more details and expression of interest.
