Location: Leibniz Institute for Tropospheric Research (TROPOS), Permoser Str. 15, Leipzig

In order to fully exploit the (AC)³ observations – here with a focus on the first field campaign results from the ACLOUD and PASCAL campaigns, but open for additional ideas – we are planning a dedicated workshop to bring together ACLOUD/PASCAL scientists (observations side) and modellers (from high-resolved / LES modelling to global climate modelling scale), as well as other interested (AC)³ scientists.
A preliminary workshop 14 October 2016 in Leipzig with participants just from different groups from Universität Leipzig and TROPOS underlined the potential of, and the interest in, such activities.
We offer a first exploratory workshop on this topic a few months after the ACLOUD/PASCAL campaigns but early enough to still steer the work of (AC)³ PhD candidates in both, modelling and observations fields, and early enough to accomplish meaningful science in the sense of joint publications across institutes.
We will call for participation from colleagues who really intend to collaborate on specific model-data synergy projects (in the sense of a workshop, not a conference).

The workshop is scheduled for two days. On Monday, 20 November, we will have 3 seperate topical meetings at different locations:

• Modelling group meets @ Vor dem Hospitaltore 1 –> Modelling group agenda
• ACLOUD group meets @ Prager Str. 34 –> ACLOUD group agenda
• PASCAL group meets @ TROPOS, Permoser Str. 15 –> PASCAL group agenda

On Tuesday, 21 November, we will have a joint meeting at TROPOS.

Workshop agenda (continuosely updated)

On Monday evening we will have a joint dinner at Moritzbastei Leipzig from 7 pm to start lively discussions between all groups.

All meeting pdfs can be found in the (AC)³ cloud.
