The presenters will be Jia Hu and Sébastien Blaise. To orient you to the topics that you will hear tomorrow, here is some background on our speakers.<br>
<br><b>Jia Hu:</b> Jia received her B.A. from the University of California, Berkeley in 2001 and her Ph.D. from the University of Colorado, Boulder in 2009. As a research associate at Berkeley, from
2001-2003 she climbed redwood trees and studied the impacts of fog on
water use. Before beginning her appointment in ASP, Jia was a postdoc at Colorado State University. At CSU, she focused on understanding how climate changes are
affecting water and carbon cycling on the Tibetan Plateau. <br><br><b>Sébastien Blaise:</b> Sébastien obtained an MSc degree in Civil Engineering in
2005 from the Université catholique de Louvain, Belgium (UCL). He
then started a PhD on discontinuous Galerkin ocean modeling at the
same university, under the supervision of Eric Deleersnijder and
Jean-François Remacle. He earned his Doctorate in Nobember 2009. As an ASP post-doc, he is currently contributing to the
numerical development of a high-order hp-adaptive discontinuous
Galerkin atmospheric model in collaboration with Amik St-Cyr and
David Hall from the IMAGe institute. The title of his ASP talk will be, "A dynamic hp-adaptive discontinuous Galerkin method for shallow
water flows on the sphere with application to a global tsunami
simulation."<br><br>See you tomorrow,<br>Vanessa<br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Vanessa Schweizer<br>ASP Postdoctoral Fellow<br>Climate and Global Dynamics (CGD) Division &<br>Integrated Science Program (ISP)<br>
