Dear all,

**Registration for the next PISCES training session is open until 25 April 2025**

This session is open primarily to beginners, but also to experienced users.

**Objectives :**

The objective of this practical session is to explore different features and tuning possibilities of **[PISCES](https://www.pisces-community.org/index.php/model-description/)** using one of the oceanic models, NEMO or CROCO.

For more experienced participants, an additional session will be proposed to learn how to add a new biogeochemical tracer to the ocean model of your choice, NEMO or CROCO, in a more independent setting.

We will also provide an opportunity to discuss your scientific topic and explore potential approaches for configuring your model to address your research question.

**Practical information :** The training will take place from September 22 to 24, 2025 in Paris at LOCEAN (10/12 people max.).

- Registration is open to individuals with an academic background in oceanography and marine biogeochemistry, ideally with experience in ocean modeling using NEMO or CROCO.
- A good knowledge of the Unix environment is a prerequisite for this course.
- Priority will be given to master and doctoral students and post-doctoral fellows.

Please send us an email describing your motivation for participating in this training (max. 1 page) along with a CV (max. 1 page) to [formation\_pisces@locean.ipsl.fr](mailto:formation_pisces@locean.ipsl.fr).

Sincerely,

The PISCES training team

**PS :** Please circulate this announcement to the community interested in marine biogeochemical modelling with PISCES
