Investigated in the Laboratory of Agroecological Monitoring, Ecosystem Modeling and Prediction (LAMP) natural forest, agricultural, urban and wetland monitoring sites give convenient environment to develop personal skills in the smart technologies of environmental and agroecological monitoring from detailed field and modern lab investigation till GIS, RS, IoT and/or DSS implementation in the LAMP monitoring sites which are representative for principal natural and functional zones at the Central Region of Russia including Moscow megalopolis, Central Forest and Central Chernozemic Reserves. The internship activities will include monitoring green house gases’ fluxes and soil migration, chemical, physical and biological properties of natural and man-changed soils, state and functions of crops, natural and/or urban vegetation. Especial attention will be given to data analysis with modern tools of GS, RS, GIS and DSS up to paper draft and/or recommendation for practice developing.
Due to COVID limitations, the internship is considered both in online or offline formats considering the limitations existing by the call announcement.
