in memory of Volfango Rupolo

Welcome
The Lagrangian Analysis and Prediction of Coastal and Ocean Dynamics (LAPCOD) group is an informal group of researchers on Virginia Key and collaborators with similar research interests in the use and understanding of Lagrangian measurements of ocean and coastal currents with free drifting surface buoys and subsurface floats.

LAPCOD V, Miami Beach 2012
The dates and location are: June 11-15, 2012 (Monday to Friday) in Miami Beach, Florida.
Hotel and meeting registration details will be announced early next year.
LAPCOD will focus on observational studies and instrumentation; theory of dispersion, transport,and coherent structures; dynamical system analysis; optimal deployment/sampling design; Lagrangian modeling and data assimilation; and biological, meteorological and multidisciplinary applications.
There will be a special session on the 2010 Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill and a special social event honoring Tom Rossby.

Mark you calendars and check out the details in the 'LAPCOD Meetings' section and click on 'Miami Beach 2012' early next year.
