Workshop proposal: Supporting U.S. Student Involvement in a SoilTrEC Training Event: Land-use practices and sustainable use of soil

这是一项支持研究生和博士后参与围绕可持续性概念组织的两项重要国际活动的请求：1）题为“土壤碳固存促进气候、粮食安全和生态系统服务”的国际会议（http：//scs2013.land.is/），冰岛雷克雅未克，2013年5月26日至29日;以及，2）欧洲集水区土壤转化关键区科学培训讲习班（SoilTrEC）项目：土地使用实践和土壤的可持续利用，2013年5月30日至6月2日，也在冰岛举行。此外，这10名早期职业科学家将组成一个由美国关键区年轻科学家组成的核心小组，他们将开始在其不断发展的职业生涯中考虑可持续性问题。

This is a request to support participation by graduate students and post-docs in two important international events organized around the concept of sustainability: 1) the international conference entitled Soil Carbon Sequestration for Climate, Food Security and Ecosystem Services (http://scs2013.land.is/) in Reykjavik, Iceland from May 26-29, 2013; and, 2) a Critical Zone science training workshop of the Soil Transformations in European Catchments (SoilTrEC) project: Land-use practices and sustainable use of soil, May 30-June 2, 2013, also in Iceland.The events are excellent opportunities for networking. In addition, these ten early-career scientists will form a core group of young U.S. Critical Zone scientists who will begin to consider sustainability issues throughout their evolving careers.
