This year again, the ODL team has been involved in the organization of the ESA Ocean Training Course 2023 which involved a series of weekly online theoretical and hand's on training followed by 10 days at sea onboard the tallship Statsraad Lehmkuhl from Maputo, Mozambique for the sail-voyage to Cape Town, South Africa from 3-13 January 2023, crossing the Agulhas current region and being involved in practical projects using both in-situ and satellite observations.

During the 14 weekly online modules, our experts will lead or participate in several interactive lectures that will provides students a hands-on training for some processing techniques to estimate geophysical parameters, as well as demonstrate synergies that exist among various ocean remote sensing datasets:

Explore synergies using various remote sensing data
Using satellite data to investigate ocean surface currents and transport
How to monitor ocean waves from space and their interaction with currents.
Wave-Current interaction: Internal waves from space
Wave-Current interaction: How does ocean circulation impact waves?
Sea ice extent, deformation and drift in the Arctic Ocean

These interactive lectures (and others too!) are based on ODL tools Ocean Virtual Lab and SEAScope
