DESCRIPTION:\nDue to the COVID-19 (coronavirus) crisis this training cours
 e was held virtually.\nThis five-day module is a combination of lectures\,
  hands-on practicals using the Single Column Model\, and group problem cla
 sses.\n\nDuring the course each parametrized process is introduced and the
 n discusses theory\, modelling and verification over several sessions.\n\n
 Processes considered\n\n\n	General aspects of parametrization and their re
 lation to systematic forecast errors\n	Radiation in numerical weather pred
 iction\n	The parametrization of moist processes (convection and clouds)\n	
 The planetary boundary layer\n	Land surface processes\n	Parametrization of
  subgrid-scale orographic effects\n	The representation of physical process
 es in data assimilation\n\n\nPre-course study\n\nParticipants will be expe
 cted to take up to 4 online modules before taking the course.  This will 
 provide introductory information on parametrization\, convection\, single 
 column modelling and the metview interface that will be used in the practi
 cal sessions.\n\nIt is anticipated that this study will take around 4 hour
 s depending on levels of prior knowledge.\n\nRequirements\n\nParticipants 
 should have a good meteorological and mathematical background\, and are ex
 pected to be familiar with the contents of standard meteorological and mat
 hematical textbooks.\n\nIntroductory material not covered by the course ca
 n be found in our lecture note series.\n\nSome practical experience in num
 erical weather prediction is an advantage.\n\nAll lectures will be given i
 n English.\n\n\nhttps://events.ecmwf.int/event/156/
