<p class="MsoNormal">Dear MonGOOS colleagues, <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>

<p style="margin:0cm">As previously announced, the annual MonGOOS General Assembly and our workshop will be held November 14-16, 2023.<br>
It is the first time since the founding of MonGOOS that the event will be held in an African country (Tangier - Morocco), kindly hosted by Abdelmalek Essaâdi University.<br>
This year, unlike usual, the workshop will be preceded by the General Assembly on November 14, followed by the JOINT MonGOOS & OCEANPREDICTION DCC MEDITERRANEAN AND BLACK SEA REGIONAL TEAM workshop on:<br>
<br>
OCEAN FORECASTING AND ITS APPLICATIONS IN THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA: PRESENT STATUS, GAPS AND WAYS FORWARD<br>
<br>
The main objective of this workshop is to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of the art of forecasting capabilities and applications for the Mediterranean Sea, in order to identify gaps and ways forward.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0cm">As part of MonGOOS' vision to share knowledge, this year we will co-host a session with researchers from the SEAMLESS project that will provide students, early career scientists, and experienced participants with hands-on training on data
assimilation in marine biogeochemistry using the “Ensemble Assimilation Tool” developed by the project for the Mediterranean Sea. Participants are encouraged to bring their own computers.<br>
The workshop will be held in hybrid mode, except for the latter session.<o:p></o:p></p>
