MABPOM 2019
The Middle Atlantic Bight Physical Oceanography and Meteorology (MABPOM) Meeting
8 - 9 October 2019
Location: James B. Hunt Library, North Carolina State University, Raleigh, North Carolina 27695, USA
Coordinators: Dr. Ruoying He, NCSU (rhe@ncsu.edu), Dr. John Bane (bane@email.unc.edu), and Dr. Harvey Seim (hseim@unc.edu).
Meeting
The focus of the MABPOM meeting is on the oceanography and meteorology of the Mid-Atlantic Bight and adjacent regions, including the Gulf of Maine, the shelf south of Cape Hatteras, as well as the coastal estuaries of the U.S. East Coast.
Despite its name, MABPOM strongly encourages cross-disciplinary and student presentations.
The informal setting of the MABPOM meeting, where feedback is encouraged, provides an opportunity to present research results that may be preliminary or potentially controversial.
MABPOM meetings:
- are informal and irreverent (if possible);
- are not necessarily restricted to either physical oceanography or meteorology– in fact we encourage interdisciplinary talks;
- are not restricted to the MAB (GoM and/or SAB talks are frequent);
- encourage graduate students and young researchers to give talks; and
- are usually built around session topics as defined by the submitted abstracts.
Wireless internet will be provided during the meeting.
