Hi, I'd like to forward this announcement about an upcoming training course at ECMWF by my colleague Niels Bormann. Thanks, Katrin Hi all, ECMWF will again be running the EUMETSAT NWP SAF training course on satellite data assimilation next year, at ECMWF HQ in Reading, UK, 18-22 January 2027. The course gives a comprehensive overview of the use of meteorological satellite observations in operational NWP. It includes a series of lectures and practical sessions covering fundamental theoretical concepts through to detailed practical implementations in state-of-the-art data assimilation systems. The course is much earlier in the year than usual and the deadline for applications is 11 October 2026. Further details and information on how to apply can be found here: https://events.ecmwf.int/event/577/ Please forward to anyone who might be interested, particularly early-career scientists. All the best, Niels Katrin Lonitz Senior Scientist Earth System Assimilation Section European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts Reading, UK | Bologna, Italy | Bonn, Germany e: katrin.lonitz@ecmwf.int w: ecmwf.int/en/staff/katrin-lonitz<https://www.ecmwf.int> [ECMWF-logo] Any email message from ECMWF is sent in good faith, but shall neither have binding effect nor be construed as constituting a commitment by ECMWF, except where provided for in a written agreement or if explicitly stated otherwise in the content of such an email.
