Session: Analysis and Forecasting for Recent Field Campaigns and Testbeds (100th American Meteorological Society Annual Meeting)

Thursday, 16 January 2020: 10:30 AM-12:00 PM

258B (Boston Convention and Exhibition Center)

Host: 30th Conference on Weather Analysis and Forecasting (WAF)/26th Conference on Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP)

Chair:

Christopher J. Melick, 557th Weather Wing, 16th Weather Squadron, Offutt Air Force Base, NE

This session will be hosted by the 30th Conference on Weather Analysis and Forecasting (30WAF). We welcome abstracts on analysis and forecasting methods used to support recent field campaigns and testbeds, as well as advances in analysis and forecasting methods pursuant to recent campaigns and testbeds. Examples of recent campaigns and testbeds include (but are not limited to) VORTEX-SE, RELAMPAGO, TORUS, PISTON, the WPC Hydrometeorological Testbed, WPC Winter Weather Experiment, WPC Flash Flood and Intense Rainfall Experiment (FFaiR), NOAA Spring Forecasting Experiment, etc.
