Esporles, december 19, 2016. The implementation of operational oceanography in the past 15 years has contributed to understanding state of the art scientific problems and has also provided many societal benefits and has led to many countries adopting a formal roadmap for providing ocean forecasts. Following on from the GODAE OceanView international schools held in France (Chassignet and Verron, 2006) and in Australia (Schiller and Brassington, 2011), this school will bring together senior experts and young researchers (pre- and post-doctorate) from across the world and expose them to the latest research in oceanography, the challenges of  multi-platform observing systems, real time data availability, integration and model assimilation, and specifically how it will impact operational oceanography. In addition to formal lectures, shorter talks by experts in the field will acquaint the participants with a wide range of applications.
 
The school is co-organized by IMEDEA (CSIC-UIB), SOCIB, IGE, COAPS and GODAE OceanView and sponsored by IMEDEA, EGU, UIB, EUMETSAT, ESA, NASA, CNES, CMEMS, EuroMarine, SOCIB and others.

Duration and place:
2-13 October 2017, Mallorca, Spain.

Directors:
Ananda Pascual, IMEDEA (CSIC-UIB), Esporles, Mallorca, Spain
Joaquín Tintoré, SOCIB & IMEDEA (CSIC-UIB), Palma, Mallorca, Spain
Eric Chassignet, COAPS, Florida State University, Tallahassee, USA
Jacques Verron, IGE, Grenoble, France
