Mesoscale Modeling of the Atmosphere and Aerosols

Abstract

The long-term goal is to extend our predictive skill for mesoscale meteorology and to use that meteorology to improve prediction for the transport of aerosols and gases. We recognize the need of the Navy to have predictions of mesoscale weather for operations, of tropospheric aerosol conditions for both operations and weapons systems, and of Chemical and Biological Weapons (CBW) conditions for operations and safety of mitigation strategies.
