Tutorial and Workshop: Future Physics for Global Atmospheric Models

Driven by increases in computing power, the treatment of small-scale physical processes in atmospheric models is at an exciting juncture. Some recent approaches (e.g., higher-order closure) are being implemented operationally, and others (e.g., machine learning) are being explored in earnest. To discuss these alternatives and future possibilities, the National Science Foundation and the National Center for Atmospheric Research are sponsoring a tutorial and workshop on advanced physical parameterizations for atmospheric models.
