The next workshop for the International Ocean Vector Winds Science Team (IOVWST), including the NASA OVWST, is being organized for May 18 - 20, 2010 in Barcelona, Spain. More information is available including the hotel location and area information. All documents from earlier meetings can be found in the Past Meetings section. Stay tuned for more news and please contact Marcos Portabella, Mark Bourassa, or Scott Kondor if you have any questions.

Much of the participation comes from the NASA OVWST, which meets annually at the IOVWST meetings. Past NASA OVWST meetings have had strong participation from Japan and the EU. We anticipate that this participation will continue and expand to include representatives from China, India, and other interested parties. Attendees should complete the online registration and those interested in contributing a poster or oral presentation (limited) are asked to submit an abstract. The deadline for registration and abstract submission will be determined at a later date.

Topics for the meeting will include:

• Introductory Session
• International Collaboration
• 'Calibration/Validation and Intercalibration
• Gridded Products
• Oceanography
• Meteorology
• New Products
• Operations
• Future Missions
• Other Issues

Note: The workshop organizers reserve the right to verify the credentials of any registrant.
