Meeting 2005 Zurich STC Meeting – Warsaw - December 2004 Approval of the 2005 work packages From the minutes of the meeting: “ There are about 120 WPs, 5 of them without any human resources. Much work is devoted to the operational maintenance of the LM system in each COSMO Member State but there is a lack in resources for scientific development “ Oct 2004 Sept. 2005 Dec 2004

Meeting 2005 Zurich Work Packages Coordinators Meeting DWD, 3-4 May 2005 Final decisions about the COSMO general meeting organization Agenda Workshops Scientific contributions …… 1-day WG1 workshop to discuss the future strategy of COSMO about Data Assimilation COSMO Verification Package: a project is required Oct 2004 Sept. 2005 May 2005 WPC Meeting DWD May2005

12/09/2005 13:30 Tiziana Paccagnella COSMO Gen. Meeting 2005 Zurich Work Packages Coordinators Meeting DWD, 3-4 May 2005 (2) Critical aspects lack of man power the solution is not easy to be found. A multi- component strategy must be designed to tackle the problem by different directions centralize some of the activities which are duplicate in the COSMO countries; this would allow to save human resources to be diverted on other activities Training of new scientists also by means of a visiting scientists program …… Discipline COSMO scientists to do their best to respect the deadlines, to answer the mails, to circulate information etc.etc. Oct 2004 Sept. 2005 May 2005

12/09/2005 13:30 Tiziana Paccagnella COSMO Gen. Meeting 2005 Zurich Work Packages Coordinators Meeting DWD, 3-4 May 2005 (2) An updated overview of the skill of the model will be regularly presented by the WG5 Coordinator and discussed at every future WPC meeting Oct 2004 Sept. 2005 May 2005

12/09/2005 13:30 Tiziana Paccagnella COSMO Gen. Meeting 2005 Zurich 14th STC meeting DWD, 13 June 2005 It is necessary to better organize COSMO activities to have a higher degree of efficiency in pursuing COSMO objectives. The weakness due to lack of human resources must be overcome concentrating man power on strategic priorities. Starting from 2006 a new organisation of the COSMO activities will be implemented and tested. Oct 2004 Sept. 2005 June 2005

12/09/2005 13:30 Tiziana Paccagnella COSMO Gen. Meeting 2005 Zurich 14th STC meeting DWD, 13 June 2005 STC defines COSMO strategy SAC (WP Coordinators + SPM) defines a preliminary list of projects fitting COSMO strategy General Meeting parallel sessions: collection of proposals and fine- tuning of projects SAC defines a priority list to be submitted to the decisions of STC STC selects a limited (one-digit) numbers of “top priority projects” WP coordinators identify Project Leaders Project Leaders prepare a detailed Project description and a clear project plan (project activities, human resources, milestones) STC gives the final approval of the projects STC members assigns human resources to the projects Oct 2004 Sept. 2005 June 2005

12/09/2005 13:30 Tiziana Paccagnella COSMO Gen. Meeting 2005 Zurich COSMO SREPS Brainstorming at DWD DWD, 14 June 2005 A brainstorming about the development of a new ensemble system for short-range (SREPS) based on LM was held at DWD. Participants: DWD staff and SPM Outcome of the meeting: COSMO-SREPS will see a strong cooperation with INM-Spain INM will include LM among the models (5 including LM) they are running nested in 4 different global models. Oct 2004 Sept. 2005 June 2005

12/09/2005 13:30 Tiziana Paccagnella COSMO Gen. Meeting 2005 Zurich COSMO SREPS Brainstorming at DWD DWD, 14 June 2005 1) INM will run LM at 25-km grid for a large domain driven by GME, ECMWF, GFS and UKMO, and COSMO would use these four LM runs to drive the COSMO-SREPS at 10/7 km over the COSMO-LEPS domain. These runs would be performed at the ECMWF, and we would extract frames from the Spanish LM runs. 2) Activity to develop perturbations on the model trajectories, e.g. stochastic physics, will be carried on. For this activity a cooperation will be possible both with INM and later probably also with UKMO. Oct 2004 Sept. 2005 June 2005
