JUTF summer school on uncertainty in ecosystem modelling 30th of June to the 6th of July 2008 hosted by ABERDEEN UNIVERSITY

If you are reading papers about uncertainty and you become seriously uncertain about how uncertain you actually are, this summer school is certainly the right place to be. The summer school is here to provide you an insight into ways to explore the probability space that surrounds your modelling results. You have the opportunity to learn from key figures in the art of uncertainty analysis in bonny Scotland at Aberdeen University right at the gate to the Cairngorms National Park and Royal Deeside.
