First installment of the PRODIGY field school

Last week, the first installment of the PRODIGY field school on Quadra Island ran extremely well. A highly engaged group participated in the field school, including EOAS members Philippe Tortell, Rich Pawlowicz, Ross McCulloch, Michael Bostock, Susan Allen, computer scientist Charles Perin (University of Victoria), and graduate students and postdocs in oceanography, geophysics and computer science. The group visited a variety of laboratories and instrument sites at the Hakai Coastal Ecological Observatory and gained hands-on experience building and deploying a range of ocean sensors.
