The original summer school web page is below:


The aim of the summer school is to give training on nonhydrostatic dynamics and data assimilation techniques for people using and developing fine-scale atmospheric models. Organisers or the summer school come from HIRLAM and ALADIN communities but the course perspective is broader than practical application of these models.

The course should provide an overview on
Introduction to the basic methods of fine-scale dynamics + numerics and data-assimilation will be given, with their practical application at an introductory level. The participants are expected to be at least post-graduate/PhD level students starting to work or already working with NWP models and familiar with basic dynamics and numerical methods.

The venue of the summer school will be Sanatorium Dunes, situated at the Gulf of Finland 40 km northwest from St.Peterburg. Please find the registration form and practical information below.
