[GTP] INVITATION--Theme-of-the-Year 2008 Geophysical Turbulent Phenomena Workshop 3 , May 28-30, 2008

[Theme of the Year Workshop 3]

THEME OF THE YEAR 2008 WORKSHOPS at NCAR
(http://www.image.ucar.edu/ThemeOfTheYear/2008/)


You are kindly invited to participate in the Theme-of-the-Year 2008 
Geophysical Turbulent Phenomena Workshop 3 entitled "Observing the 
Turbulent Atmosphere: Sampling Strategies, Technology and Applications"
(http://www.image.ucar.edu/Workshops/TOY2008/focus3/)

The measurement of turbulence, along with the enabling sensor 
technologies,spans many areas in geophysical turbulence research.

Measurements of turbulence in laboratory experiments and in observations 
of natural flows are crucial for elucidating the basic structure of 
fluid motions; the discovering of new characteristics of a fluid; 
guiding theoretical studies; and providing empirical data to compare 
against modeling results.


Venue
The workshop will be held at the National Center for Atmospheric 
Research's Foothills Laboratory 2, Room 1022 and Mesa Laboratory, Main 
Seminar Room
28 - 30 May 2008.
