Energy exchange in sub-arctic and arctic ecosystems
Many recent changes in the cryosphere of high latitude ecosystems have been dramatic and have unexpectedly exceeded even aggressive projections. Some of these changes are expected to impact local climate as well as regional and even global climate through teleconnections. The changes in the cryosphere, induced by climate change, influence the ecosystem/geosphere processes which directly affect climate through different feedback mechanisms both in terms of surface-atmosphere energy exchange and exchanges of greenhouse gases.

Erasmus Mundus (IMQP) Scholarship

Overview
The International Master in Quaternary and Prehistory (IMQP) lasts two years. It is formed of a partnership of six HEIs with multi-annual experience in prehistoric research and formation: Università degli Studi di Ferrara (Italy, coordinator), Musum National d`Histoire naturelle (France, partner), Universitat Rovira i Virgili (Spain, partner), Instituto Politecnico of Tomar (Portugal, partner), Universidade de Tras-os-Montes and Alto Douro (Portugal, partner) and University of the Philippines Diliman (Philippines, partner).

The main subjects of the IMQP educational program are the following: prehistory, anthropology, human palaeontology, chronology, evolution of fauna and flora, archaeometry and Quaternary geology. The main objective of the Master is to provide an essential knowledge on Prehistory and Quaternary geology by adopting an interdisciplinary approach and exploiting the scientific specialities of each partner Institution.
