In the past few years, a suite of GODAE systems have been developed to produce global and basin-scale ocean analysis and short-term forecasts. GODAE products are also being used for ecosystem applications and to provide lateral open boundary conditions for regional and coastal systems. The specific requirements of these applications are important to the GODAE product developers as well as to the understanding of the need for large-scale observational systems. GODAE prediction systems for the Asia-Oceania region are being actively developed. Capitalizing on these developments, GODAE is organizing a symposium in Beijing, China to address key technical issues and to enhance the interaction of GODAE system developers and product users, especially in the Asia and Oceania regions. admin Conference 2006-10-10 11:53:32 http://iwsea.org/asiandeltaproject The Asian Delta project has been conducted by the Geological Survey of Japan/AIST since 1996 with the collaboration of more than ten research institutes and universities in Asia. admin 2007-01-12 09:56:19 http://iwsea.org/redriver_vietnam admin 2006-10-05 16:42:47 http://iwsea.org/deltas2007 International Geoscience Programme (IGCP) Project 475, Deltas in the Monsoon Asia–Pacific Region (DeltaMAP), has been organizing international conference on deltas annually.The fourth meeting will be held in Bangladesh, on the Ganges-Brahmaputra river delta, from January 6–13, 2007.
