DB.00001: Research, Applications and Employment Opportunities in Earth System Science Invited Speaker: I will describe the scientific challenges facing Earth System Science and its many applications both in the area of weather forecasting and climate. I will also touch upon the responsibilities that people in our area have in communicating their results with the public at large as well as with policy makers. This informal presentation will be of interest to graduate and undergraduate students interested in potential research experiences or employment in atmospheric, ocean and Earth physics.

DB.00002: International REU for Gravitation Invited Speaker: The National Science Foundations (NSF) funds many Research Experience for Undergraduate Students (REU) Programs at many Universities in the US. The NSF also funds a small number of REU programs which allow students to conduct their summer research abroad. One of these programs is the International REU for Gravitation which is organized out of the University of Florida. This program sends students to partner institutions in Australia, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom. I will describe the program, how to apply, the schedule, and the feedback we received from the students and will answer all other questions regarding the IREU.
