Subject: Christian Le Provost


to GLOSS mail lists:

You will be very sad to hear that Christian Le Provost died yesterday
from a heart attack.

Christian was probably the world's foremost tide modeller, a
leader in projects such as Mercator, and was recently elected as
Chair of the GLOSS Experts. He was also a good friend to many of
us.
