[RegCNET] IUGG Perugia 2-13 July 2007

[FILIPPO GIORGI]

Dear Colleagues

we are planning to organize a session on

"Downscaling to local and regional scales" (IAMAS session MS016)

to be held at the IUGG Conference in Perugia, Italy on July 2-13 2007. 
Below you can find a description of the session. Besides Perugia being a 
lovely town to visit, we are going through some very exciting times in 
both dynamical and statistical downscaling to regional and local scales, 
so I hope you will be able to contribute to a strong session.

The abstract deadline is: JANUARY 31 2007

More detail on the conference can be found at

Hope to see you there,   Filippo Giorgi

PS. I apologize if you are receiving this email more than once. It means 
you are important and are located on several email lists

"Downscaling to local and regional scales" (IAMAS session MS016)

This symposium invited papers on studies directed towards deriving 
fine-scale estimates of atmospheric and hydrologic conditions. Approaches 
based on both statistical and deterministic techniques, including 
especially fine-scale regional models, are invited. Topics do be covered 
will include techniques for downscaling and modeling, intercomparison 
projects, application of the approaches to particular regions and 
localities, and evaluation of the techniques and their transferability and 
uncertainties. Papers are also welcomed on the linking of regional 
atmospheric and climate models of other processes, including hydrologic 
and ecosystem models.
