The 3rd Session of CLIVAR Ocean Model Development Panel will be held alongside with the 

An international workshop on high-resolution ocean modelling for coupled seamless predictions

Scope: The scientific development of ocean models and global coupled prediction systems at resolutions of order 1/12 ° for seasonal to decadal prediction and short-range weather forecasting.

Objectives/themes:

Abstract submission for the open conference is now open and will close on 15th June 2015. To submit an abstract, visit the conference website:

The School will be organized in daily morning sessions with key lectures divided in two main streams (Part A: Fundamentals and Part B: Applications), and daily afternoon sessions devoted to practical training (Part C: Hands-on sessions). Practical sessions will be the backbone of the school, with hands-on training in the use of ocean and ecological models. The students will be guided through the necessary steps for setting up a simulation, from generating the input fields to choosing the appropriate physical settings, to finally analyzing and postprocessing the data.
