Project Description

Aiming at the efficient modelling of atmospheric large-scale flow for climate change studies, the objectives of this project are to develop a small-scale stochastic model for convective activity, such as precipitation, and to describe convective feedback to the large scale. This leads to a hybrid model with a stochastic conceptual description of convection embedded in a deterministic atmospheric flow model. Towards these aims, we continue the development of an atmospheric stability indicator, we apply and simultaneously develop coherent set analysis, and we use data-based identification and investigation of non-linear systems.
