SSS06
St.Petersburg Summer School 2006
on
Nonhydrostatic dynamics and fine scale data assimilation
11-17.6.2006 Sanatorium Dunes, Sestroretsk
Below you find links to course resources: publications of related
courses, references to literature, lecture notes, downlodable software
to be used for the excercises. The list will be populated as soon as
new information will be available. Note that the presentations and
lecture notes will be linked directly to the course programme after or
before the school. For general references, see also "Useful links" at
the NetFAM home page.
Please download to your laptop/usb stick/ excercise files and
other needed material, print interesting presentations! Access to
internet during the school will be limited due to technical
reasons.

Download programmes for excercises
The following links provide material for SSS06 exercises: to run in
available computers or to read and analyse ready-made
simulations. Each package contains some minimum documentation, which
should make it possible to install the programs. Please download and
try even before the school - this will create a hot start for the
exercises in Sestroretsk. Please send any comments and questions to
Laura Rontu (fmi.fi), Aarne Männik (ut.ee) or Kirsti Salonen
(fmi.fi).
Tartu mountain wave routines
Linear buoyancy waves generated by bell-shaped mountain as a model
test. The package contains needed c-programmes and documentation,
including some references. Programmes may be run during the SSS06
dynamics exercises. Please download the file tartumw.tar.gz.
First version 6 June, 2006
ALADIN and Tartu bubble simulations
Nonhydrostatic and hydrostatic simulations of small-scale bubbles. The
package contains presentation by Jan Mashek in AROME course (see link
above), new bubble programme by Aarne Männik, some additional
documentation and excercise tasks. Please download the file bubbles.tar.gz
Second version 8 June, 2006
ALADIN Croatian bora simulations
Nonhydrostatic and hydrostatic simulations of bora wind case over
Croatian mountains and Adriatic sea 13 Nov, 2004. The package contains
report by Martina Tudor plus two grib files with mean and envelope
orographies with 2km resolution over the ALADIN experiment
domain. Grib files with the experiment results and grads ctl files
will be available during the course at CD. Existing results may be
analysed and discussed during the SSS06 dynamics exercises. A few
Croatian mountain profiles have been included into the input data of
Helsinki mountain wave programmes (see below). Please download the
file bora.tar.gz.
First version 1 June, 2006
Helsinki semi-analytic stationary mountain wave routines
Stationary, finite-amplitude buoyancy waves generated by arbitrary
mountain profile. The package contains needed semi-analytic
f77-programmes, some input data and documentation, including some
references. Programmes may be run during the SSS06 dynamics
exercises. Please download the file
famwm.tar.gz
Second version 6 June, 2006
Routines for 2D data assimilation excercises - missing document added 29 June!
Numerical analysis laboratory from MISU, Stockholm university. The
package contains f77 programmes and documentation. The programmes can
be run during the SSS06 data assimilation excercises. Please download
the file analab.tar.gz .
First version 2 June, 2006
