*Attn: Grad Students and Postdocs*
> *Summer school/Workshop "Waves, Instabilities and Turbulences in 
> Geophysical and Astrophysical Flows"*
> ***July 8 - July 19, 2019*
> IESC Cargese, Corsica, France
> https://witgaf2019.sciencesconf.org/
>
> *Scientific scope*
> Understanding the dynamics of geophysical and astrophysical systems, 
> such as oceans, atmospheres, planetary cores, stellar interiors, 
> accretion disks, remains a tremendous interdisciplinary task. Beyond 
> the challenge in fundamental fluid mechanics to understand these 
> extraordinary flows involving rotation, buoyancy, magnetic fields, at 
> typical scales well beyond our day-to-day experience, a global 
> knowledge of the involved processes is fundamental to a better 
> understanding of the dynamics of these systems.
> Much research efforts have been devoted to understanding geophysical 
> and astrophysical  flows, within and between the various communities 
> of Mechanics, Applied Mathematics, Engineering, Physics, Planetary and 
> Earth Sciences, Astrophysics... While open questions from the various 
> application domains actually rely on the same fundamental concepts and 
> phenomena, lots of progresses have been made within each enclosed 
> domain, with only marginal cross-fertilisations. The objective of the 
> workshop is to go beyond this state. Our goal is to bring together 
> researchers interested in geophysical and astrophysical fluid 
> dynamics, and to provide for students and confirmed researchers, the 
> fundamental fluid mechanics background as well as the last research 
> developments on waves, instabilities and turbulence in the contexts of 
> oceans, atmospheres, planetary cores, stellar interiors and accretion 
> disks.
