3. Workshop on shallow convection - Toulouse, july 3-4 2006 Project objectives Development of physical parametrizations is a major issue for GCM community Since october 2003, IPSL and Meteo France decided to collaborate concerning physical parametrizations in their models

4. Workshop on shallow convection - Toulouse, july 3-4 2006 Project objectives Share parametrizations Make common analysis of the results It’s not « common physics » nor 2 physics but 2 environments of parametrizations First step: 1D model 3 domains: Waves Radiation Boundary layer/convection/clouds

5. Workshop on shallow convection - Toulouse, july 3-4 2006 Project objectives Model: Arpege 1D (cycle 25) Using existing cases To call the entire physics of LMDz in Arpege 1D
