Fluid Fellows

Participants in the 2011 Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Program gather for a 10-week research program, which has been in existence at WHOI since 1959. Each group is made up of graduate students and researchers from a variety of fields who share a common interest in the nonlinear dynamics of rotating, stratified fluids. Under the program, which includes vigorous discussion on a variety of fields, fellows pursue a research project under the supervision of the staff and present a lecture and a written report for a proceedings volume.
