International Liège Colloquium
on Ocean Dynamics

Every year, GHER / Modelenvironment organizes the International Liège Colloquium on Ocean Hydrodynamics. Each year a different topic is discussed among scientists who specialized in this matter and others who want to see how their own work can benefit from the progress made in the subjects under discussion. Previous issues covered a wide range of subjects. The most recent topics were :

1990 : Ice covered seas and ice edges: physical, chemical and biological processes and interactions

 1991 : Modelling the interaction of the deep ocean and the shelf and coastal seas

 1992 : Sub-mesoscale air-sea interactions

 1993 : Data assimilation in marine science (in association with NATO)

 1994 : The coastal ocean in a global change perspective

 1995 : Processes in regions of freshwater influence.

 1996 : Modelling hydrodynamically dominated marine ecosystems

 1997 : Modelling of turbulence revisited

 1998 : Hydrodynamical and Ecosystem Processes in Ice Covered Seas of the Southern and Northern Hemisphere

 1999 : Three-Dimensional Ocean Circulation : Lagrangian measurements and diagnostic analyses

 2000 : Exchange Processes at the Ocean Margins

 2001 : The use of data assimilation in coupled hydrodynamic, ecological and bio-geo-chemical models of the ocean

 2002: Tracer methods in geophysical fluid dynamics

 2003: Dying and Dead Seas (in association with NATO)

 2004: Marine Environmental Monitoring and Predictions

 2005: Gas Transfer at Water Surfaces

 2006: Revisiting the Role of Zooplankton in Pelagic Ecosystems

2007: Turbulence Re-Revisited

 

The NATO-RUSSIA ARW and the 2008 Liège Colloquium  will be held 5-7 May 2007. The subject of this 40^th Colloquium is :

Influence of Climate Change on the Changing Arctic and SubArctic Conditions
