Last week, one of our Student Ambassadors, Debasish Mishra, hosted a week-long workshop featuring presentations by experts in the field of hydrology to discuss their work from a data analysis perspective. Over 130 participants worldwide joined this virtual event and got hands-on experience in data collection, organization, and analysis. These presentations covered a variety of topics including differentiable modeling, remote sensing, and best practices for coding using real hydrology and environmental datasets! Each presentation was recorded and can be viewed on the W.A.T.E.R. workshop playlist on our YouTube channel.
Thank you to everyone who attended and participated! Special thanks to our speakers and workshop organizers. We look forward to more hands-on events in the future.
