International Ocean Colour Science (IOCS) meeting - Abstract Deadline 15 March 2013 The first International Ocean Colour Science (IOCS) meeting will take place in the city of Darmstadt, Germany from 6 to 8 May 2013 (see http://iocs.ioccg.org ). The deadline for abstract submission is 15 March 2013. Abstracts dealing with any aspect of remote sensing of ocean colour will be accepted (see http://iocs.ioccg.org/abstracts/submit-an-abstract/ ). You are encouraged to register for the meeting as soon as possible. Registration is free but all participants must be registered in order to attend the meeting.

Project manager for BOUSSOLE A project manager position is proposed (with a start as soon as possible; ideally beginning of May 2013) at the "Laboratoire d'Océanographie de Villefranche, LOV", within the "Marine optics and remote sensing" group (see at http://www.obs-vlfr.fr/LOV/OMT ). Our group is composed of 8 scientists, 9 engineers and a dozen of Post-Docs, Phds and trainees. We are embedded into the "Observatoire Océanologique de Villefranche" ( http://www.obs-vlfr.fr ), which employs about 180 total staff (60 researchers). The proposed job develops within the "BOUSSOLE" project, whose main goals are fundamental bio-optics research and calibration/validation activities for satellite ocean color sensors. The project is centered on the development, deployment, and maintenance of a deep-sea mooring of a new type, precisely designed and dedicated to marine optics measurements (inherent and apparent opt...
