Workshop and Training Course: Seafloor Observation Techniques for Marine Geohazard Monitoring
We have organized an ESONET NoE (European Seas Observatory Network of Excellence) training course on “Seafloor Observation Techniques for Marine Geohazard Monitoring” at İstanbul
Technical University on 18-19 August 2009.Engineers and scientists from
marine institutes, other related governmental and private organizations
are invited to participate.
The
programme, venue and registration form are attached. Financial support
is available for a number of participants. Those who are interested in
attending the course please fill in the attached registration form and
send it to:ulgenum@itu.edu.tr
Deadline for applications is 15 July 2009.
The training workshop will follow a one-day symposium on “An overview of the research in the Sea of Marmara region over the last 10 years”, on the 10th Anniversary of 17 August 1999 Izmit Earthquake.
