Abstract
Two distinctive features of large-scale geophysical flows
are that they are dominated by the earth's rotation and that
they are turbulent. This year's lecture program was an exploration
of recent achievements in the study of, first, the simplest
examples of turbulence, and second, the rotational constraint.
