Winter School: Physics and Mathematics of Turbulent Flows at Different Scales
A2C2 proudly supports the Winter School on the Physics and Mathematics of Turbulent Flows at Different Scales, which will be held in Les Houches (France) on 24th Feb. to 1st March 2019.
The school will present recent advances on the physics and mathematics of turbulent flows at different scales, ranging from laboratory to geophysical systems. Four main streams of activities will be explored, based on the paradigms of deterministic chaotic systems, stochastic dynamics, theory of turbulence, and statistical mechanics.
More information on the programme and registration can be found here.
The 14th IMSC
A2C2 proudly supports the 14th International Meeting on Statistical Climatology (IMSC). The IMCS will be held in Toulouse, France, on June 24-28, 2019.
These meetings, which have been held roughly every three years since 1979, are organized by independent statisticians, climatologists and atmospheric scientists. They facilitate communication between the climate and statistics communities and promote good statistical practice in climate and atmospheric science (see http://imsc.pacificclimate.org/).
Abstract submission is now open. The deadline for abstract submission is February 20, 2019.
The list of sessions is provided below* and further information can be found on the conference website: http://www.meteo.fr/cic/meetings/2019/IMSC
Registration will open soon; the registration fee is not frozen at this stage but should be around 400€ (300€ for early-bird before mid-April). It will include lunches, coffee breaks, a conference dinner and public transportation in Toulouse.
Please feel free to disseminate this announcement and/or contact the local organizing committee at: .
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
WPS training session
The first training session on the “blackswan” WPS will take place at IPSL (LOCEAN, Jussieu) on March 15th 2018.
“blackswan” is one of the birds of the WPS that is dedicated to statistical diagnostics of the atmospheric circulation (analogues, weather regimes, etc.).
The instructions to install and run the WPS can be found here.
