[tgcmgroup] TIE-GCM Users Group workshop at CEDAR/GEM 2016

[Stan Solomon]

We will have a TIE-GCM "users group" workshop at the CEDAR/GEM meeting 
in Santa Fe, currently scheduled for Wednesday afternoon, June 22.

This will be a discussion-oriented workshop, starting with a few 
presentations on the Version 2.0 release, new features and diagnostics, 
problems and challenges, etc.  Brief talks on new results, data 
comparisons, validation studies, mechanisms, inputs, post-processing, 
data assimilation, and other models, are welcome.  Please send me an 
email if you'd like to present something.

We also want to allow ample time for questions, and invite comments 
about model weaknesses or implementation difficulties.  A concluding 
discussion about future development priorities, and how to go about 
achieving them in a "resource constrained" environment, could be useful.

Here is the formal description as posted on the CEDAR wiki:

"This informal workshop is an opportunity for developers and users of 
the NCAR Thermosphere-Ionosphere-Electrodynamics General Circulation 
Model to discuss the new release of Version 2.0 (with high-resolution 
capability), to ask questions both scientific and technical, and to 
discuss problems, issues, validation, data comparison, and opportunities 
for future development. Although initially tutorial in format, 
discussion and debate are welcome, as are contributed talks describing 
model-data comparisons, other global numerical modeling, global 
empirical models, and using these models with data assimilation 
techniques. We will also describe support for the upcoming NASA missions 
ICON and GOLD, and new model capabilities being developed specifically 
for interpreting these future observations."

Please plan to attend!
