2011 Hong Kong Workshop


This was a ten-day workshop on how to set up and run ROMS, offered by Dale Haidvogel, Jian-ping Gan, and Kate Hedstrom, with the able assistance of Rob Cermak in the lab. Equations were shown in the mornings in a classroom situation while more practical topics were covered in the afternoons in a computer lab.
