The Advanced Study Courses in the field of Marine Science and
Technology were part of the training programme developed from 1989
until 1999 within MAST, the Marine Science and Technology Programme
of the European Union. They were related to the core topics of MAST
Programme, marine systems research, extreme marine environments,
regional Sea research, coastal systems research and engineering,
and marine technology. The main objectives of these study courses
were to further advance education in topics at the forefront of
scien tific and technological development in Europe, and to improve
the communication between students and experienced scientists on a
European and international level. Over the years the Programme
sponsored around 30 Advanced Study Courses. They took place in ten
different member states of the European Union and their
contribution in the formation of a European scientific community
was significant. They also encouraged exchanges and contacts with
several countries around the world such as United States, the third
Mediterranean countries and others. The Course on Ocean Forecasting
was one ofthe most successful with regard to its con tent, number
of applications for participation and students satisfaction. When
considering the need for the Advanced Study Course on Ocean
Forecast ing, it is important to remember that the Oceans and Seas
have always played a central role throughout the history of
mankind. This is seen from the times of the ancient civilizations
ofEgypt and Greece with the Phoenician traders, to the Viking
voyages of exploration and discovery in medieval times."
