SEAMOCS

Applied stochastic models for ocean engineering, climate and safe transportation

A Research Training Network funded by the European Commission 2005-2009

Seamocs Workshop 2007:

The Seamocs workshop on Implications of climate change for marine and coastal safety was held in Palmse near Tallinn in Estonia, October 11-12, 2007. Besides a general session about climate change there were special sessions on Extreme waves and on Coastal processes. Workshop schedule and contact Tarmo Soomere. The Seamocs workshop continued on Friday afternoon with a CENS-CMA workshop on hydrodynamics; see program and abstracts.
