Summer school on data assimilation in Sibiu, Romania

This is now a big tradition. Every second year, Remus Hanea brings a good sample of the top of the cream of data assimilation to a fantastic place in Romania for a 2-weeks summer school. After fantastic places like Iasi, Brasov, Cluj, we are back to Sibiu.

The Summer school is co-sponsored by TU Delft, Statoil and the EmblA Nordic Center of Excellence
