2nd
International Marine Modelling Seminar '98
3-5 March 1998, Lillehammer, Norway
|
Invitation
You are cordially invited to attend the SINTEF
Environmental Modelling Seminar '98.
Numerical and physical modelling of marine
environmental processes and systems occupies a central role in planning and evaluating
virtually all coastal and offshore development projects in the world today. Environmental
modelling also plays key roles in research, allowing testing of hypotheses and furthering
our understanding of the natural phenomena around us.
The purpose of this seminar is to provide a forum for
scientific, industrial, environmental, and legislative representatives to achieve an
understanding of the state of the art, and to exchange technical information on
environmental modelling. Of special interest are applications with an international
perspective.
