Participation
By invitation only.
The Third Session of the Intergovernmental Coordination Group for the Tsunami and Other Coastal Hazards Warning System for the Caribbean and Adjacent Regions (ICG/CARIBE EWS-III) held in Panama City, 12-14 March, 2008 recommended to develop capabilities for modeling tsunami events through holding a Workshop on ComMit (NOAA’s MOST model). In the above framework, the University of Guadeloupe, Guadeloupe,will host a Community Model Interface for Tsunami (ComMIT) Training Workshop, October 24-28, 2011. The course is sponsored by UNESCO’s Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC). ComMIT is an interface for NOAA’s propagation/inundation tsunami code, MOST, and the training will be provided by personnel of the NOAA Center for Tsunami Research. The 5-day course will include the preparation and pre-processing of the computational grids (three) and how to use the MOST code to prepare inundation maps based using pre-computed sources in the Caribbean region. All participants are expected to bring their own laptop running either MS Windows or Linux.
