Location and Organisation

The Ecord Summer School 2008 was organized by Prof. Dr. Dierk Hebbeln, Director of the Bremen International Graduate School for Marine Sciences „Global Change in the Marine Realm“ (GLOMAR), by Prof. Dr. Kai-Uwe Hinrichs, head of the MARUM Organic Geochemistry Group, and by Dr. Ursula Röhl, head of the IODP Bremen Core Repository (BCR).

GLOMAR, MARUM and BCR jointly offered unique training opportunities by providing laboratory facilities and a seminar room equipped with 20 laptops (internet access, MatLab etc.).

Programme

MARUM - Center for Marine Environmental Sciences

The Aim

The major goal was to bring PhD students and young Postdocs in touch with IODP at an early stage of their career, inform them about the actual research within this international scientific program, and to prepare them for future participations in IODP expeditions. Such training will be achieved by taking the summer school participants on a “virtual ship” where they get familiarized with a wide spectrum of state-of-the-art analytical technologies and core description methods according to the high standards on IODP expeditions. Therefore the course was equally balanced, with half the time dedicated to lectures and discussions and the other half to laboratory exercises.

Located on the university campus, MARUM hosts the IODP Bremen Core Repository (BCR), the only IODP core repository in Europe.
