The Operational Marine Surface Analysis using EUMETSAT‘s Copernicus Marine Data Stream Course (Classroom Phase) was held at the Instituto Português do Mar e da Atmosfera (IPMA) in Lisbon, Portugal.
The classroom phase, open to those who successfully completed the Online Phase earlier this year, allowed a more in-depth look at altimetry and scatterometer data. As well as lectures, we concentrated on practical sessions and exploring live weather.
The course finished with participants giving a short presentation of an event that had caught their interest. This year’s presentations were extremely fascinating and showed how much the students had gained from the course.
The course was supported by instructors from NOAA and KNMI allowing the participants to interact with them, ask questions and get responses direct from the experts.
