Melanie Colón Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 We would like to draw your attention to the MCED award for ecologicalmodeling, which is now announced for the seventh time: http://www.mced-ecology.org/?page_id=941Young modelers can apply, who finished their bachelor, masters, or PhDdegree within the last 3 years. New since 2015: The prize is dividedinto two categories:1) For PhD and Postdocs. The 'main' prize is endowed with *500 EUR*(currently about 550$), the following prizes will be MCED textbooks.2) For bachelor and Master students.

With this focus, the MCEDaward follows the eponymous textbook for ecological modeling which hasbeen published by Springer Publishing House and which provides acurriculum for ecological modeling for students, either for a universitycourse or for self-learning.The MCED editors together with Springer Publishing House invite youngecologists who:- analyze ecological phenomena using ecological modeling approaches inan innovative way.- apply new modeling methods and techniques and thereby contribute toapplied or theoretical ecology- use modeling frameworks to bridge the gap between basic science andapplication enhance the understanding of complex ecological processesand dynamicsAs application, please mail-in the form which is available onwww.mced-ecology.org under the section award. A committee, formed by theeditors, the president of the GfÖ (Ecological Society of Germany,Austria and Switzerland) and representatives of the GfÖ Young ModelersGroup will decide on the submitted proposals by End of Septembert.
