SOCIB & IMEDEA researchers present at EGU Vienna 2015
An important representation of SOCIB and IMEDEA (CSIC-UIB) teams participated in the European Geosciences Union 2015 Assembly held in Vienna (Austria), April 12th-17th. Presentations focused on the present status, advances and scientific results from SOCIB multi-platform approach, the activities from different SOCIB Facilities (including among others, data centre, gliders, HF radar, and modelling), and the specific advances in operational capabilities.
This year, the theme was "A Voyage through Scales", particularly in line with SOCIB objectives. According to the EGU2015 web (http://www.egu2015.eu), 11,837 scientists from 108 countries participated to the conference, with 4870 oral, 8489 poster and 705 PICO presentations.
