Join us for Ocean Optics XXVII, the twenty-seventh edition of the biennial international Ocean Optics Conference. This event brings together a diverse ocean optics community, including oceanographers, limnologists, optical engineers, Earth observation scientists, resource managers, and policy professionals from across the globe, all united by a shared passion for optics in aquatic environments.
Ocean Optics XXVII will be held at two exceptional venues in the heart of Ghent. Wintercircus, a stunningly renovated innovation hub centered around a dramatic circular arena, will provide the space for the poster sessions, exhibits, and short courses. The plenary sessions will be held just across the street in the iconic Theaterzaal (theater) of the Arts Center VIERNULVIER, known for its historic elegance and architectural grandeur.
