Plans |
|
| CCSM (Community Climate System Model user group) |
C.-H. Moeng (CMMAP Deputy Director), M. Moncrieff, and W. Grabowski of NCAR/MMM play a crucial role in research interactions on the boundary layer,
the MJO, and the MMF. W. Collins and J. Hack of NCAR/CGD are important collaborators on radiative transfer and on the CAM.
|
Enhance interaction with CAM (Community Atmosphere Model) scientists. |
 |
| FRCGC (Frontier Research Center for Global Change) |
H. Miura,T. Nasuno, and M. Satoh collaborate on GCRMs.
|
H. Miura will be a visiting scientist at CSU for one year, working on GCRM development. |
 |
| ECMWF (European Center for Medium Range Forecasts) |
M. Miller interacts with CMMAP scientists on medium range forecasting, model evaluation through NWP |
Work to engage additional ECMWF scientists. |
 |
| BMRC (Bureau of Meteorology Research Center) |
C. Jakob collaborates in the evaluation of global cloudiness simulations. Model evaluation, especially based on ARM data. |
C. Jakob has left BMRC for Monash University. We plan to initiate interactions with H. Hendon of BMRC. |
 |
| NCEP (National Centers for Environmental Prediction) |
S. Lord, L. Uccellini are interacting with CMMAP scientists on the potential of MMFs and GCRMS to improve operational weather forecasting. |
S. Lord presented an invited talk at the August 2007 Team Meeting on operational forecast models at NCEP. |
 |
| GFDL (Geohysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory) |
L. Donner, our point of contact with GFDL, collaborates on the development of improved MMFs and improved conventional parameterizations.
|
No change. |
 |
| LLNL (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory) |
P. Duffy was involved in the development of the CMMAP proposal, but has since become inactive.
|
Future interactions with PNNL will center on D. Bader. |
 |
