This workshop aims to discuss the recent development of global storm-resolving model analyses that bridge new advancements in atmospheric and cloud dynamics. Global km-scale models of the atmosphere and remote sensing observations such as satellites and ground-based radars are beginning to reveal the global structure of mesoscale disturbances and turbulence. The collaborative studies between detailed observations and km-scale modeling on vertical motions of the atmosphere and cloud processes associated with meso-scale circulation, gravity waves, and turbulence and their roles in the atmospheric general circulation and the middle atmosphere have been active in recent years. The progress in atmospheric general circulation dynamics and dynamics for cloud, convection and precipitation systems, as well as future developments in these fields with global storm-resolving analysis, will be the discussion target in this workshop.

In particular, there has been a decades-long research effort in these fields at the University of Tokyo. This workshop will celebrate the progress made in related fields at The University of Tokyo, and look forward to future contributions to international research in these areas.

Experienced and emerging experts in the above fields will be invited internationally to this workshop for intensive discussions.

 

Key topics:

      Interrelationships between atmospheric and cloud dynamics and global storm-resolving analysis

      Current status and prospects of global storm-resolving models with the update on the progress and results of the DYAMOND project
