Summary:
The purpose of this meeting is to coordinate the expertise of a transdisciplinary groups at the interfaces of mathematics, high precision satellite ocean observations and large-scale scientific computation as well as to ensure professional capacity building and sharing best practices in the early career development in the national/regional ecosystems.
Format and scope:
The event’s format will consist of various segments such as speaker talks and several breakout sessions running simultaneously. This structure will yield opportunities for:
- investigators at an early stage of their career to have discussions with established scientists
- fostering potential future research collaborations with presenting organisations
- increase the interactions among related communities
- a relaxed, friendly and intellectually stimulating discussion forum for the free exchange of ideas for their implementation in a wider community setting
- excellent networking breaks
- promoting inter-disciplinary research
- career mentoring of the next generation of researchers
Programme:
The event will be starting at 2:00PM and running until 5.00PM with various segments. The call will be open from 1.30PM for organisers/breakout sessions leaders/session chairs (early arrival is optional). The room will be opened at 1:55PM to all participants. The event’s speakers and breakout sessions leaders will include leading mid-career and senior researchers as well as junior researchers.

Participants:
* “Stochastic Transport in Upper Ocean Dynamics” (STUOD) project is the highly prestigious ERC Synergy Grant, led by Imperial College London (ICL), National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automatic Control (INRIA) and the French Research Institute for Exploitation of the Sea (IFREMER). https://www.imperial.ac.uk/ocean-dynamics-synergy/
** Climate change represents an urgent challenge for humanity. Quantifying uncertainty in long‐term climate prediction and estimating the potential strength of extreme meteorological events in the face of global warming are very difficult research questions, with large economic and societal impacts that will only grow in the future. In response to this challenge, Imperial College London and the University of Reading have joined forces to create the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in the Mathematics of Planet Earth (MPE CDT). Students in the MPE CDT receive cohort-based PhD training in the mathematical and computational techniques needed to understand, predict and quantify risk and uncertainty for extreme weather and climate change. https://mpecdt.org/
