4th Workshop on the Use of Isentropic & other Quasi-Lagrangian Vertical Coordinates in Atmosphere & Ocean Modeling
When October 7-9, 2008
Where
NOAA Earth System Research Laboratory
Boulder, Colorado
Considerable development & testing of quasi-Lagrangian vertical coordinates has occurred since the last hybrid-Θ modeling work shop 4 years ago. This work, in both the atmosphere & ocean, has demonstrated further the potential for isentropic & other quasi-Lagrangian vertical coordinates to improve simulations & forecasts of geophysical fluid flows.
This workshop will include both invited & contributed papers on the latest progress in this rapidly developing field, including;
- Principles & design of quasi-Lagrangian vertical coordinates
- Atmospheric applications: weather prediction & general circulation simulation
- Ocean modeling applications
- Atmospheric chemistry applications
- Applications in regional process studies, both hydrostatic & non-hydrostatic
- Theoretical & technical issues
