The SPARC DynVar Activity will hold its 2nd Workshop in Boulder, Colorado, USA, 3-5 November 2010.

First Announcement:  Background, motivation and aims.

Second Announcement: Registration and request for funding deadlines

Welcome

DynVar is an international climate modelling activity that studies the influence of the stratospheric circulation on the global climate system.

The activity uses general circulation models to ask

  • How does the stratosphere affect the tropospheric mean climate?
  • How does the stratosphere impact climate variability on all timescales?
  • How does the stratosphere impact climate change?

The activity involves scientists from modeling centres and universities. The activity is open to all researchers interested in contributing; please contact us if you wish to participate.

The DynVar activity is part of the Stratospheric Process and their Role in Climate Project (SPARC). SPARC is a core project of the World Climate Research Program (WCRP).
