The Global Energy and Water Cycle Exchanges (GEWEX) project and its parent organization, the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP), are sponsoring a video competition for Early Career Researchers. Anyone whose research addresses the water challenges facing the Western United States and Canada is welcome to create a video summarizing their work and why it should be included in a new Regional Hydroclimate Project.

Five winners will receive a 500 USD prize, a spot on an Early Career Scientist committee for the new Regional Hydroclimate Project, and a mention in GEWEX’s quarterly newsletter. Videos should be no longer than 15 minutes and the deadline for getting them in is 11:59 pm EDT on April 27, 2016. Website details are below.
