The COTE Cluster of Excellence brings together nine laboratories of the University of Bordeaux, France and major national French research institutes involved in research on terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems (INRA, CNRS, IFREMER and IRSTEA).
This year, it organises its fifth Summer School on the topic: "Weak signals and emerging issues in ecological transition" (Bordeaux, 03-07 July 2017). As part of the COTE training programme, the COTE Summer School gathers PhD students in environmental sciences, each specialised in different disciplines such as ecology, chemistry, biology and even sociology. Scheduled talks and field trips with international scientists will provide participants with a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach on integrative ecology.
