Fourth EUMeTrain Marine Course, 2019 edition

Fourth EUMeTrain Marine Course, 2019 edition

Twenty-three participants took part in the recent online Marine Forecasting Course, run by EUMeTrain. The main audience for the course was marine forecasters from several weather services across Europe. Experts on wind products (Ad Stoffelen from KNMI), ocean wave models (Jean Bidlot, from ECMWF), and from NOAA (Joe Sienkiewicz, Zorana Jelenak and Paul Chang) supported the course. Participants chose a showcase on a marine topic, on which they worked throughout the course, with the help of the experts and contributions from their peers. All participants successfully completed their showcases, and the top ones will be published on the EUMETSAT website.
