September 2018 : CALL FOR ABSTRACTS for annual meeting of the Ocean Surface Topography Science Team (OSTST)

Category: Events

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS for the annual meeting of the Ocean Surface Topography Science Team (OSTST), which will take place on Thursday 27 and Friday 28 September 2018, in Ponta Delgada, São Miguel Island, Azores Archipelago (Portugal).

The annual meeting of the Ocean Surface Topography Science Team (OSTST), will be held in the second part of the "25 Years of Progress in Radar Altimetry" Symposium and will address specific issues on the TOPEX/Poseidon-Jason series of missions, including algorithm and model improvement, Cal/Val activities, merging with other altimetric satellites (CryoSat-2, SARAL/AltiKa, HY-2, Sentinel-3), and preparation for the Sentinel-6/Jason-CS and SWOT missions.   Because of the obvious relationship with the Symposium, it is proposed that the purely science presentations of the OSTST PIs and Co-Is be given in the Symposium. This will leave more time during OSTST for specific splinters, technical presentations, including a poster session. The International Doris Service (IDS) workshop (1.5 days) will take place in parallel to the "25 Years of Progress in Radar Altimetry" Symposium and start after the Monday morning plenary session. Abstracts submission for the OSTST and IDS meetings is open through this <link https: meetings.aviso.altimetry.fr external-link-new-window>interface  and will end on May 14 (midnight UTC).   For OSTST, splinters descriptions to choose where to submit your abstract can be found <link https: meetings.aviso.altimetry.fr fileadmin user_upload tx_ausyclsseminar files ostst2018 splinters-ostst2018.pdf external-link-new-window>here.
