We are pleased to offer a new training course on the topic of ‘Using R to analyse and interpret ocean observational data’.

This training course is developed and delivered by the Commonwealth Blue Charter Champion of the Ocean Observation Action Group (Canada) for those with an interest in learning how to analyse and transform publicly available oceanographic data into information for various applications.

A basic understanding of R is required for this course. (R is an open-source computer language commonly used in environmental and statistical analyses.)

This two, half day course (split into two 3-hour sessions) will take place twice to accommodate officials from different time zones:

• Offering 1 - 28 and 29 March 2022 (13:00 – 16:00 BST) GMT +1 You can see your local time at https://bit.ly/3sVe0Qs
