Dust-DN webinar and extended application deadline

The Dust Doctoral Network (Dust-DN), led by CARE-C of the Cyprus Institute, is recruiting PhD students for 17 ambitious research projects in the theme of atmospheric dust and the deadline has been extended until 30 September 2024.

PhD LOCATIONS: Cyprus, United Kingdom, Portugal, Greece, Spain, Germany, Switzerland.

Dust is a major atmospheric aerosol, and it gives us one of the most visible and detectable aspects of transboundary transport of atmospheric constituents, impacting visibility, radiation and climate. It affects the environment, society, and several economic sectors, with impacts on the transportation and energy sectors for example, the nature and cost of which is not fully understood and quantified. The Dust Doctoral Network will train a cohort of scientists to become leaders in this field of research.

If you would like to learn more about DUST-DN, you can join the *webinar* dedicated to the network, organised by the Barcelona Dust Regional Centre on Wednesday 18 September at 15:00 CEST.
