Abstract

A Visiting Professor appointment is proposed for John Sheehan at UNICAMP. This appointment is, at a high level, intended to build a bridge between the work of UNICAMP and the GSB and the University of Minnesota's Institute on the Environment.

It is anticipated that Mr. Sheehan will be in residence at NIPE and will be hosted by Professor Luis Cortez as well as Visiting Professor Lee Lynd. (AU)
