Details

The 17th Conference on Atmospheric and Oceanic Fluid Dynamics (AOFD), organized by the AMS Committee on Atmospheric and Oceanic Fluid Dynamics will be held in conjunction with the 15th Conference on the Middle Atmosphere (MA). Papers are solicited in all areas of atmospheric and oceanic fluid dynamics spanning theory, observations, and modeling. Joint sessions with MA will include (1) dynamics of the coupled troposphere-stratosphere including annular modes and the tropical upper troposphere/lower stratosphere, and (2) internal gravity waves: observations, generation, and parameterization. For the 15th Conference on the Middle Atmosphere, papers are solicited in all areas of middle atmosphere science (from the upper troposphere to the lower thermosphere). We seek a balanced program of modeling, observations, and analyses. Focused sessions have been proposed on results from the START-08, TC4, SCOUT-O3, and appropriate ARCTAS and International Polar Year (IPY) campaigns, investigations of troposphere to stratosphere exchange of water vapor, findings from the EOS Aura, ENVISAT, TIMED, ACE, ODIN, and AIM satellite experiments, and studies with chemistry/climate models related to the changes that are occurring in and are expected in the coming decades for the middle atmosphere.
