During the 12th International Workshop on Modeling the Ocean (IWMO 2022) held in Michigan University Ann Arbor, USA, from 28 June - 1 July 2022, SARCCM student Mr Gang Yang won the 3rd prize of Outstanding Young Scientist Awards (OYSA) in the virtual category. Gang's presentation is on 'Modelling study on the sediment dynamics, the formation of the flood tide delta near Cullendulla Beach and the impact of human activities in the Batemans Bay, Australia'.
The IWMO is a prestigious and coherent international ocean modelling group, with the first IWMO workshop originally held in 2009 with the goal that modelers and observationalists interested in ocean processes and effects on surroundings can exchange their latest research and wide-ranging ideas in an intellectually rewarding and relaxing environment. The IWMO focuses on all aspects of ocean and coupled air-wave-sea, ice and current-sediment modeling: processes, analysis and prediction. The IWMO workshop holds annual workshop participated by around 100 ocean modellers and observationalists world wide.
