Alexander Barth (M) holds a PhD in Oceanography and his major contribution is given by new ideas in data assimilation. He significantly contributed to the project “Global Ocean Predication with the Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM)”. His scientific ideas have led to a high number of presentations at science meetings and publications in peer-reviewed journals. He was awarded the 2010 Outstanding Young Scientist Award for his achievements in the field of data assimilation in oceanography, to which he has contributed original ideas on the development of assimilation strategies for regional ocean models.

Final PHIDIAS Impact Webinar: The path toward new services to increase HPC and Data capacities
The PHIDIAS’s final impact webinar took place last 12 July which aimed at presenting the tangible outputs achieved by the PHIDIAS HPC initiative at the service of the European HPC and Research community, including main features, concrete impact, and prospective advantages for Research & HPC ecosphere. Here are the brief key takeaways from the event:
• A simple web access to a world-class supercomputer, yet with a kind of magic
• From 5% of data analysis to 45% for scientists (data access and computing) on the road to 80%
• Two portals to find and access the available data
• Already available results for Earth Science Systems (detection of extreme events, pollution, nutrients or ocean oxygen measures, etc.)
• Security by design is key in creating such an infrastructure (Security Committee)
• PHIDIAS is also a prototype to evaluate costs
• Metadata is a key point.
