Dear Colleagues:<br><br> We would like to encourage you to submit an abstract to the following <br>AGU session, to be held in December at the AGU meeting in San Francisco:<br><br><h3>NG017: Stochastic Parameterizations in Numerical Weather and Climate Models</h3>
The abstract for the session is as follows:<br>
                                
                                        <p>"The representation of subgrid scales by stochastic processes in
state-of-the-art General Circulation Models (GCMs) has reached such a
level of maturity that stochastic parameterizations are now found in
operational NWP models and GCMs. Among candidates for stochastic
representation are backscatter of vorticity from unresolved to resolved
dynamical scales, subgrid-scale convection, subgrid-scale gravity waves
in the ocean and/or atmosphere, and boundary-layer mixing. We invite
members of the numerical modeling community who are investigating the
implementation of these and other stochastic parameterizations in both
global and regional models to share their experiences and results in
this session."</p><p><br></p>With best regards,<br><br> Adam Monahan and Cécile Penland<br>
