agenda (check second PDF link). There will be very limited printing capabilities during the workshop, and we would like to encourage everyone to be as eco-friendly as possible! Therefore, if you would like a paper copy of the lecture and tutorial notes to aid in your own note taking during the workshop, please print your own copies and bring them with you to Santa Cruz.While we are not providing paper copies of the lecture notes, you will instead each receive a very stylish and much sought after ROMS t-shirt, along with some useful maps, etc. We are still adding documentation about the tutorials in
WikiROMS.
