The summer school is organized by the GEIA (Global Emissions Inventory Activity) of AIMES (Analysis, Integration and Modeling of the Earth System), a project of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Program (IGBP).

 

The school is supported by the ACCENT European Network of Excellence, and the INTROP (Interdisciplinary Tropospheric Research: from the Laboratory to Global Change) project of the European Science Foundation (ESF) and the US National Science Foundation (NSF). The school also acknowledges support from the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS), as a “thematic school”. Support has also been awarded by the French Agency for Environment and Energy Management Agency (ADEME).

 

We would like to thank specially Paulette Middleton from Panamorama Pathways (paulette@panoramapathways.net), who has managed the registration and has conducted many contacts with the participants of the school. Aude Mieville and Alice Granier, from the Service d’Aéronomie/Institut Pierre Simon Laplace (IPSL) are also greatly acknowledged for their help in the management of the logistics.
