Short Course on River Ice Modelling
CRIPE is pleased to host a 1-day short course on river ice modelling on July 13, 2023 following the main workshop. This course is aimed at practitioners and researchers who are new to river ice modelling, or anyone who would like a refresher on ice modelling in a hands-on environment. Topics covered will include:
All exercises will use real world examples with real-world case studies and real data. The course will be delivered using a Virtual Lab platform, so participants will only need to bring a laptop with a modern browser and internet capabilities. The short course will be taught by members of the CRIPE community with practical modelling experience. The price includes the course materials, as well as breakfast, lunch, and coffee breaks.
