[RegCNET] RCM workshop announcement corrected

[FILIPPO GIORGI]

Dear all

I realized I had some bad omissions in my previous poster, meaning that S. 
Rauscher and X. Bi were not included in the lecturer list. Of course they 
will be lecturing and in fact they will be key contributors to the 
workshop. My mistake. Please find the revised poster in attachment.

Concerning the workshop itself, since I received a couple of questions 
concerning its structure, let me say something about it.

The workshop will be essentially divided into two weeks. The first will be 
like a conference covering general issues on regional modeling. There will 
be invited talks, contributed papers and panel discussions. There might 
also be some hands-on sessions in the late afternoons.

The second week will be specifically on model hands on sessions and 
projects. We will have two models, the RegCM for climate application and 
the RSM for seasonal prediction applications. The current idea is not to 
have everybody do both, but to have RegCM-climate people on one side of 
the room and RSM-seasonal people on the other. Some people may be 
intrested in both, in which case I a not sure what we'll do.

We are still working on a specific agenda. Hopefully it will be available 
in the next weeks. In case you are not interested in the hands on sessions 
you can come only for the first week, although if the ICTP pays for your 
trip, it requires attendance for the whole event. I am not sure what the 
RSM side will look like (L. Sun from IRI is organizing it), but for the 
RegCM side we will also have an important discussion of the future of the 
model, so if you have any ideas-opinions, be prepared to participate to 
this discussion actively.

I think it will be a very exciting event

hope to see you here,   Filippo
