Dear WRF-users,<br>
<br>
We would like to bring to your attention the session “Extreme Warm
Season Precipitation in Mountainous Regions and its Hydrologic Impacts:
Modeling and Observations for Climate Studies” at the 2010 Fall AGU
Meeting in San Francisco, CA, December 13-17, 2010. A description of
this session is provided below.<br>
<br>
We invite and encourage you and your colleagues to consider submitting
an abstract for this unique session.The deadline for submission is
September 2, 2010 at 23:59 EDT. Abstracts may be submitted using the
following form: <br>

<i>Session</i>: Extreme Warm Season Precipitation in Mountainous
Regions and its
Hydrologic Impacts: Modeling and Observations for Climate Studies<br>
<br>
<i>Description</i>: Modeling warm-season precipitation and its
hydrologic impacts, and how these might change in the future is a
challenging problem. Does the addition of complex terrain to the
equation make the solution more or less difficult? Topics of interest
include: regional climate modeling; high-resolution numerical modeling;
analysis of observational datasets for model validation; process
studies; downscaling of climate model projections; potential impacts on
flooding, reservoir operations and dam safety; relevance to probable
maximum precipitation. The focus will be on understanding and
simulating these events in the current climate and under climate change.<br>
