2nd MAR Regional Atmosphere Model Workshop
13-15 September 2017, Grenoble, France

Organizers announce the 2nd Regional Atmosphere Model (MAR) workshop. The workshop will convene 13-15 September 2017 in Grenoble, France.

A call for abstracts will be announced on the MAR website: http://mar.cnrs.fr/index.php?option_smdi=actualite&id=12.

The workshop will consist of one day of courses about model use and two days of communications and discussions about model results and development. The new MAR website will also be presented during the workshop.

MAR is an atmosphere model designed for meteorological and climatic research and is used for a wide range of applications, from kilometer-scale process studies to continental-scale multi-decadal simulations. This model is known for its representation of physical processes in polar regions and is one of the few models able to simulate
realistic surface mass balance, air-snow interactions, and atmospheric circulation over ice sheets, including katabatic winds. MAR has led to significant advances in the understanding of the surface mass balance of mid-latitude and tropical glaciers and has provided climate simulations over Europe and Africa.
