Virtual Summer School on Ocean and Climate Computational Modelling by OKEANO CSA

The OKEANO CSA implementing the All-Atlantic Ocean Research and Innovation Alliance (AAORIA) is thrilled to announce the launch of the virtual Summer School titled “Ocean and Climate Computational Modelling – Basics and Applications.” This event, set to take place on 23-27 September 2024, is an excellent opportunity for Early Career Ocean Professionals (ECOPs) to gain foundational knowledge in ocean modelling and its applications.

Course Overview

Participants will embark on a 45-hour immersive journey, spread over five days, where they will delve into the basics of ocean and climate computational modelling. The course content covers essential topics including climate, oceanography, meteorology, and numerical modelling concepts. Key numerical modelling techniques like downscaling and data assimilation will be explored, providing a comprehensive understanding of their applications in real-world scenarios. The course promises an interactive learning experience with a blend of lectures, group discussions, and exercises. Participants will also gain access to digital notes and publicly available oceanographic and climatological databases, enhancing their analytical skills.

No Participation Fees

The Summer School is funded by the European Union’s Horizon Europe Research and Innovation Programme under Grant Agreement No. 101158065, ensuring that there are no costs or fees associated with participation.
