International GHRSST Data Users Symposium
28-29 May 2009, Santa Rosa, CA

The Group for High-Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) project provides a new generation of uniformly processed satellite SST data and global high-resolution (<10km) SST products to the operational oceanographic, meteorological, climate and general scientific community. More information on the project is at http://www.ghrsst-pp.org/. The symposium will update SST data users on satellite data sets and the current status of blended products. We are requesting presentations on the latest research and/or applications using GHRSST data. Topics may include, but are not limited to: oceanographic research, air-sea interactions, coral reefs, ocean modeling and forecasting, maritime pollution monitoring, coastal environmental protecting and management, fisheries, marine park management, sea ice, ocean circulation, and data assimilation systems. The two day symposium aims to assemble a diverse group of scientists to discuss recent a! dvances in the knowledge of processes related to sea surface temperature and foster enhanced collaboration between GHRSST data users and research groups.

The GHRSST Data Users Symposium will be held at the Vineyard Creek Hyatt in Santa Rosa, CA, USA, from 28 to 29 May 2009. A detailed agenda will be established and circulated later, however we suggest that an early reservation is made for hotels, as Santa Rosa is a popular travel destination. Deadline for registration is 31 January 2009. More information at: https://www.ghrsst-pp.org/International-GHRSST-Data-Users-Symposium-Event.htm .

Student grants are available. Please see the website above, for more details.
