Idea Building, Room G109, 5269 Morris St
Hosted by Canadian Atlantic Section Affn,YP
Co-hosted by Newfoundland-Labrador Affin Grp, YP;
Join the IEEE Young Professionals community at the inaugural Canadian Atlantic Ocean Symposium (CAOS 2026 - https://www.ieee-caos.org/) for a career-focused panel discussion and networking reception focused on opportunities in Ocean Engineering & Science.
This moderated panel will feature speakers from academia, industry, and government discussing:
- Early-career transitions and professional growth
- Long-term career pathways in ocean technology and research
- Advice for students and young professionals entering the field
- Building technical and professional networks in Atlantic Canada
Following the panel, attendees are invited to join the CAOS Opening Reception to continue conversations and network with conference participants and industry professionals.
Date: Monday, July 20, 2026
Location: Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia
Panel Time: ~6:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Reception: ~7:00 PM – 9:00 PM
This event is intended for IEEE Young Professionals, graduate students, senior undergraduate students, and anyone interested in careers in the ocean sector.
Registration for IEEE Young Professionals and IEEE Student Members is free but required due to limited capacity.
Additional panelist and registration details will be announced closer to the event.

IEEE OES-GRSS-APS Invited Technical Talk 2
Speaker: Dr. Kegen Yu
Title:Monitoring Ocean States with Spaceborne GNSS Reflectometry
Abstract: Global Satellite Navigation System Reflectometry (GNSS-R) is an emerging remote sensing technology that is increasingly widely used in Earth observation, environmental parameter retrieval, and monitoring of marine and terrestrial disasters. This talk primarily discusses the use of spaceborne GNSS-R technology for monitoring ocean conditions, selecting three ocean parameters—sea surface wind speed and direction, and sea surface wave height—as retrieval targets. It focuses on studying how to construct ocean parameter retrieval models using machine learning algorithms under the condition of sufficient observational data samples. Model training primarily utilizes GNSS-R observation data from China's Fengyun-3E and the U.S. CYGNSS satellites, along with several ocean parameter product datasets as reference data. Through extensive experimental data processing, the model's performance was validated, demonstrating that spaceborne GNSS-R technology can be applied to monitor ocean conditions and serve as an effective supplement to existing ocean monitoring techniques.
