The regular themes of the Workshop
included:
-
Technical development for marine
observation systems;
-
Operational practices and
enhancements, and;
-
Applications of collected data.
In addition to the regular themes, this
year’s workshop had a major focus on " Impact of drifter and moored
platform data on operational and research applications". Topics of
interest were:
-
Impact of Sea Level Pressure from
drifters on Numerical Weather Prediction;
-
Impact of Tsunameter data in Tsunami
monitoring;
-
Impact of buoy data on ENSO
prediction;
-
Impact of buoy data on ocean
forecasting models;
-
Recent ocean research findings thanks
to buoy data;
-
Applications of Southern Ocean buoy
data.
