Overview

Empowering the Next Wave of Indian Ocean Prediction: Join us for IOPredict-2024:

We are excited to announce the upcoming 'IOPredict-2024' workshop, organized by International Training Centre for Operational Oceanography, INCOIS, a Category-2-Centre of UNESCO during 9-13 December 2024 at ITCOcean, INCOIS Campus, Hyderabad, India. This international event will bring experts, early career researchers and students together to share new research and ideas in ocean processes, modeling and prediction to address important challenges in ocean sciences and its contribu-tion to the Blue Economy.

This five-day workshop will provide a unique opportunity for early career researchers and students to learn various aspects of ocean modeling and data assimilation and their applications. Participants will engage in stimulating discussions, exchange of ideas and expertise and build lasting connections. The workshop will feature invited talks from leading experts in ocean sciences, offering insights and guid-ance on critical topics. Additionally, a special three-day pre-conference tutorial to provide training on scientific data analysis, interpretation, scientific writing and presentation will also be conducted during 4-6 December 2024.

Workshop Themes:

  • Ocean General Circulation Modeling
  • Ocean Processes and Observation
