NetFAM unites twenty Nordic, Baltic and French meteorological
institutes from universities and weather services to a research and
training network funded by

(Nordic Research Board):
"Nordic Network of Fine-scale Atmospheric Modelling (NetFAM)
aims at complex and comprehensive promotion of fine-scale atmospheric
modeling of Nordic-Baltic regional weather and climate processes and
man-environment interactions, with strong emphasis on specific
qualities of Nordic natural environment and the Baltic Sea
influence. To achieve these objectives, the network is designed to
cover the whole chain from basic research and researcher training
towards the application of the models. The network shares modelling
tools, observational and physiographic data, computing and educational
resources, in order to strengthen the expertise in the area of
fine-scale atmospheric modelling in the Nordic countries and adjacent
areas around the Baltic Sea. " (from the project plan)
