The Trondheim Symposium on Modeling, Sampling and Control for Marine Sciences 
and Engineering brought together an interdisciplinary group of oceanographers, 
modelers, statisticians, researchers in AI and Machine Learning, at the 
Norwegian Univ. of Science and Technology (NTNU), Trondheim, Norway Nov 28th 
thru 30th. The topics covered were at the intersection of

Oceanographic modeling 
Sampling 
Information Theory
Control Theory (including deliberative AI-based control)
Machine Learning
This by-invitation only event highlighted the gaps between modeling the upper 
water column and potential statistical and information-theoretic methods to 
sample with autonomous systems to better understand the changing climate. 
Besides established researchers in the field from Europe, the US, Singapore and 
Australia, a small number of Early Stage Researchers were also invited and 
encouraged to present posters. 

The symposium was funded by NTNU, the Research Council of Norway and the US 
Office of Naval Research (ONR) and ONR Global. We expect the symposium to be a 
biennial event going forward.
