We've attended quite a few conferences over the years. This is a place to record some notes on them and, perhaps more importantly, good places to eat!

Feel free to add your thoughts / recommendations here.

General Notes

Flights

  • Avoid electronic boarding passes, since you'll need to submit a boarding pass with your receipts to get reimbursed
  • You'll likely be buying your tickets well in advance of the conference, so you may want to consider getting a travel advance so that you get that money back earlier

Conferences

  • List of conferences that we've attended
    • and some thoughts that we've had on them
  • Ocean Sciences
    • Very large conference, wide range of topics. Fairly light on numerical talks.
      • (Ben) I quite enjoyed this conference. Massive poster session was good. Good chance to see interesting talks in your field and check out interesting talks in other fields.
