The 2026 IOCAS International Training Course on Subsurface Mooring Observations takes place in Qingdao, China, 14 - 20 Sept 2026. ➡️ Apply by 21 June english.qdio.cas.cn/newsroom…
The subsurface mooring system is the most effective method for quantifying changing ocean conditions over long periods, which is a cornerstone of understanding climate change. However, recovery and deployment of moorings are very challenging and require comprehensive experience, professional knowledge, and skills. Based on rich experience and solid research capacity in subsurface mooring observation and application, the IOCAS has hosted three training courses on Subsurface Mooring Observations since 2023. The training program aims to provide scientific and technological training to countries worldwide, significantly contributing to the goal of global ocean observation. Course Topics: ● Research vessel tour and introduction ● Mooring design, deployment, and retrieval procedures ● Field operation and data processing ● Dynamic processes and mechanisms analysis and interpretation ● Scientific reports The course will be conducted in English
