Ferrybox Workshop 2011
FerryBoxes as Part of Operational Observation Networks: Monitoring versus Scientific Aspects
The Helmholtz Centre Geesthacht hosted the FerryBox Workshop on 1-2 September, 2011.
This was the 4th meeting in a series of FerryBox workshops. After completion of the EU-funded project ‘FerryBox’ in 2005 the FerryBox community wanted to improve the combined knowledge. Therefore the FerryBox workshops were originated in order to share experience and knowledge about the use of different underway systems. The last three meetings took place in Oslo (2007), Southampton (2008) and Goteborg (2010).
This workshop was intended to promote science and knowledge of using ships of opportunity delivering observations of the oceans. It should provide a venue to discuss recent advances, innovative ideas and scientific applications, to share experiences and to develop networks using underway systems.
