Reminder that COSIMA Workshop abstract submissions are open
The next session is on TOMORROW and it’s all about visualisation!
Session 6: Visualising the Southern Ocean using ACCESS-Vis - using 3D graphics tools to animate sea ice, current and other features from ACCESS model outputs in the Antarctic region
Description: An introduction to ACCESS-Vis and ACCESS-Visualisation-Recipes, the example-driven set of visualisation tools and workflows we’re developing for working visually with ACCESS model outputs and other earth-systems datasets. These tools use GPU powered 3D graphics techniques which have the advantage of allowing rapid rendering of large amounts of data to assist in analysis as well as animation tools to bring data to life in 3D for communication and outreach.
I’ll talk briefly about what is released so far and the tools and examples available on our Github, then run through a more in-depth example demonstration to visualise data in the Southern Ocean that will hopefully be relevant to COSIMA, which I’ll also share as a reference.
Prerequisites
Familiarity with Python, Jupyter, Xarray and Numpy

This week we’ll hear from Noah Day (Uni of Adelaide) who will be presenting on “The Short-Term Impacts of Winter Cyclones on the Antarctic Marginal Ice Zone”.
A reminder that abstract submissions for the COSIMA Workshop (8-12 Sep in Melbourne) close on Sunday 15 June. Submit one here. There will be travel support for some students who submit an abstract.
For those planning travel, the COSIMA Hackathon will start at 9:30am on Monday 8th September and the COSIMA Workshop will finish at 4pm on Friday 12th September.
