Modeling Related to the Regional Observing System in the Gulf of Maine

On July 6-7, 2005, the Regional Association for Research on the Gulf of Maine (RARGOM) held a workshop entitled “Modeling Related to the Regional
Observing System in the Gulf of Maine”. The goals of the workshop were to:

  1. Identify management issues that can be addressed by multidisciplinary models within the framework of a regional observation/modeling system, and processes for linking management needs with modeling capabilities,
  2. Describe the status of integrated modeling for the Gulf of Maine system and identify the critical issues and research priorities for model development, and
  3. Identify the critical data needs for model development, evaluation, and application in relation to the observing system. 

RARGOM, the Gulf of Maine Ocean Observing System (GoMOOS), Gulf of Maine Census of Marine Life, and the University of New Hampshire Coastal Observing Center were partners in organizing and facilitating the workshop.  For more information, visit the online meeting site
