SECOORA Principal Investigators Nick Shay, University of Miami, Dana Savidge, Skidaway Institute of Oceanography and Ruoying He, North Carolina State University are attending the 2013 Gordon Research Conference on Coastal Ocean Circulation being held at University of New England, Biddeford, ME from June 9 – 14, 2013. The Gordon Research Conference will bring together a diverse collection of physical oceanographers, including experimentalists, modelers, and theoreticians, who are at the forefront of their fields. Ruoying He is the discussion lead on Interannual and Long-Term Changes in the Coastal Ocean. Nick Shay and Dana Savidge are presenting talks on "Resolving submsoscale surface current variability along a western boundary current using HF radar measurements" and "Radar research: Access to a range of scales"respectively.
