Dear MPAS-Atmosphere Community:
The Mesoscale and Microscale
Meteorology (MMM) Laboratory of the NSF National Center for Atmospheric
Research (NSF NCAR) will be hosting a virtual tutorial on the Model
for Prediction Across Scales – Atmosphere (MPAS-A), to be held 12 - 14 January 2026.
The
tutorial will consist of lectures and practical sessions where
participants will gain experience building, configuring, and running the
MPAS-Atmosphere model. The primary audience for
these tutorials is new or beginning users of MPAS-Atmosphere. Basic knowledge of atmospheric science and numerical
modeling is helpful, while experience working in a Unix computing environment is required.
We anticipate opening applications for the tutorial in early December, and an announcement with further details will be sent out at that time. Please watch your inbox, and we hope to see you and your colleagues at the tutorial!
With kind regards,
The MPAS-Atmosphere Developers
