Workshop on Future Storm-Resolving Configurations of CESM - Part 1

May 16, 2023

Dave Randell, Jim Hurrell, Bill Skamarock, Christiane Jablonowski

Hosted by Atmospheric Science and CIRA

Abstract

Purpose: To bring together model developers and users (~50 people) who need to use CESM with horizontal grid spacings of a few km or finer. The applications of such models (both coupled and atmosphere only) include both weather and climate. The agenda of the Workshop includes sessions devoted to model formulation, weather and climate applications, and computational science.

Broader Impacts: The workshop will create and enhance synergies among the developers and users of high-resolution coupled models based on the CESM. It will allow U.S. researchers to leverage expertise from groups that are currently disconnected and sharing lessons learned and best practice. It will facilitate more effective coordination collaboration going forward
