STEP Annual Virtual Workshop: Predictability and Prediction of Weather Related Hazards: Session 3
Channel: NSF NCAR Research Applications Laboratory
Date: 08/02/2022

This virtual workshop was sponsored by the cross-lab STEP program. The workshop was open to all NCAR staff. The main objective of the workshop was to identify new areas and opportunities for cross-lab collaborations to enhance the hazardous weather research at NCAR. The workshop consisted of the following four topics:

Toward integrated convection-permitting modeling 
Machine learning applications in hazardous weather prediction
Predictability of convective weather systems and their associated hazards
Hazard prediction via coupled modeling
