High-Resolution Weather and Climate Modeling on Large Supercomputers I Posters


Submit an Abstract to this Session


Session ID#: 48421

Session Description:
High resolution weather and climate modeling offers significant opportunities for improving the quality of simulations.  This is particularly relevant for modeling of water cycle processes and extreme events which are inherently multiscale and have important societal implications. Increase in model resolution and complexity presents significant challenges on many fronts. These include evaluation, diagnosis, and analysis of model simulations and predictions, model initialization and data assimilation, uncertainty quantification, and computational performance. This session aims to bring together scientists who develop, run, evaluate, and analyze atmosphere models, ocean models, and coupled models of weather, climate, and Earth systems at high resolution as well as scientists who enable these models to run efficiently on high performance computing architectures. This session also encourages presentations from coordinated high resolution modeling projects such as HighResMIP and DYAMOND, comparison of high resolution modeling approaches, and development of observational datasets and metrics for evaluation of high resolution simulations.
