The Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Institute:
"To promote and stimulate theoretical, numerical, field,
and laboratory experimental studies of fluid-dynamical phenomena in
the atmosphere, rivers and lakes, ground water, oceans, fluids on other
planets, and fluid portions of the Earth's interior, and to apply
this knowledge to problems in the geosciences, including environmental problems."
GFDI supports this mission by:
- developing hands-on geo-fluid dynamics lab demonstrations for students;
- providing research support facilities: computing, photo and machine shops;
- facilitating collaborative research;
- administering the GFD graduate program;
- administering a colloquium series in
geophysical fluid dynamics;
- hosting visiting professors and arranging meetings
and short courses;
- administering research contracts and grants
