Visit to the National Institute of Oceanography (NIO), Goa, India

I am currently visiting the National Institute of Oceanography (NIO), Goa, India after an invitation by Prof. Vethamony. The visit primarily encompassed discussion of work pertaining to the development of water quality models for the west coast of India. I also delivered a talk on water quality modeling to Prof. Vethamony's team of specialists. Below are some pics from my visit.

I would like thank Prof. Vethamony, Dr. Babu, Renjith and all NIO staff for their hospitality and kindness. Thanks also for sponsoring the trip :-)
