Description
University College Galway was host to an International Group of scientists at a Whitecap Workshop in Sept. 1983. Fifty oceanographers, meteorologists and physicists from more than ten nations attended and discussed their research results on topics such as oceanic whitecap formation, the production of marine aerosol and air/sea exchange processes. The workshop culminated in twenty three research publications and eighteen Poster Paper Abstracts in a special volume (Edward C. Monahan, Gearóid Mac Niocaill, 1986, pp 1-294).
A photograph of the Workshop participants is shown in Picture 1.
Peoples’ names are given in Picture 2 and Picture 3.
A workshop banner in the form of a quilted patchwork depicting sea foam (oceanic whitecaps) was executed by Helen Hardesty and Elizabeth Monahan and is shown in Picture 4.
