Following on from last two years highly successful events at UEA,

third time
at the University of Reading from the 15th - 26th September 2003.

As well as guest lectures and poster sessions, topics will cover the
whole of the Earth's System from the global water and biogeochemical
cycles to socio-economic aspects of global change.

Detailed information on the programme is available on the ES4

The website also includes an article about the summer school, written
by Zoe Bond, one of the previous year's students. To quote her "it was
a valuable experience for all of us".

The Summer School is co-directed by Prof. Brian Hoskins (University
of Reading) and Prof. Peter Liss (UEA).

Deadline for registration is 13 June 2003. Confirmation of
