Workshop Announcement

Announcement
The fourteenth workshop for users of layered ocean models will be held in Miami, FL at the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences from Monday June 1 through Wednesday June 3, 2009. A 1/2-day HYCOM-specific meeting will be held on the aftrernoon of Wednesday June 3th.

All interested parties (users and non-users) are cordially invited to attend. As in the past, we require that those who wish to make a presentation (oral or poster) have hands-on experience with either layered or hybrid-coordinate ocean models, defined here as models that allow layer thickness/grid spacing to vary in time by casting the continuity equation as a prognostic layer thickness tendency equation. Although such models have traditionally used isopycnic vertical coordinates, presentations on layered or arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) model approaches to other vertical coordinates are welcome.

Future announcement about the workshop can be found on http://oceanmodeling.rsmas.miami.edu/lom/. We look forward to seeing many of you in Miami in June.
