US Northwest#
We will have two sub-programs in the US Northwest satellite, including a regular 5-day OHW satellite and a 3-week undergraduate summer program.
These two sub-programs are coordinated in their planning and overlap in time. Participants are encouraged to interact fully across the groups and with other satellites.
Location#
University of Washington, Seattle, WA
Format#
In-person. We have space reserved to watch OHW tutorials together and work on projects. We also plan to have social gatherings outside of the formal meeting space to explore and enjoy the region together.
Regular OHW satellite (August 15-19, 2022)#
We welcome participants from all career stages and encourage applications from graduate students, postdocs and early career researchers. Advanced undergrad students with background in oceanography and data science are also welcome. Below is a summary of activities:
We will watch all the tutorials together
Participants can asynchronously work on projects with participants of other OHW events (either the global virtual event or other satellites). Or participants can work on projects synchronously with other participants in the two sub-programs in Seattle.
We encourage students to communicate with the global virtual event and other satellite events to augment their OHW experience.
Logistics
We are able to provide lodging for a small number of participants who need to travel within the US Northwest region to the event. Funding request is not part of the application process and more info on this will be available after participants are accepted into this satellite.

For questions specific to the regular OHW satellite, please ask in our Github Discussions. Please tag the organizers with @oceanhackweek/ohw22-organizers-northwest and add a OHW22 - Northwest label so that others can find answers. Additionally you can email Dr. Wu-Jung Lee (leewj@uw.edu).
Undergraduate summer program (August 8-26, 2022)#
This “Data Science in Oceanography” undergraduate program will be held in person at the University of Washington, Seattle campus and will provide opportunities for undergraduate students in data-driven research in oceanography. Participating students will interact closely with faculty and graduate student mentors to develop and advance individual research projects. Students will fully participate in the OHW Northwest satellite event as part of this longer undergraduate program.
This in-person program does not sponsor Visas and is intended for students who already reside in the US.
See details in the program flyer
Logistics
We are able to provide undergraduate participants full support for lodging and meals, as well as partial travel reimbursement. Funding request is not part of the application process and more info on this will be available after participants are accepted into this satellite.
