Objectives : The aim of this hands-on session is to explore different features and tuning possibilities with low-cost configurations of PISCES with one of the NEMO or CROCO ocean models. You will also learn the steps to add a new biogeochemical tracer to the ocean model of your choice, NEMO or CROCO, in a more self-paced session. An introduction to diagenesis and its modeling module or an introduction to the full-quota model will be given, followed by a relatively short hands-on session.

Practical information :

The training will take place from September 23 to 25, 2024 in Paris (10 people max.).

Registration is open to people with an academic background in oceanography and marine biogeochemistry and with a solid experience in using the PISCES model on one of the ocean platforms, NEMO and/or CROCO.

A good knowledge of the Unix environment is a prerequisite for this course.

Priority will be given to master and doctoral students and post-doctoral fellows.

Send an email describing your motivation to attend the course (1 page max.) and a CV (1 page max.) to formation_pisces@locean.ipsl.fr.

Sincerely,

The PISCES training team
