-MOSAIK-2 is a [[http://www.bmbf.de|BMBF]] funded German research project within the joint research project "Urban Climate Under Change" [[http://uc2-program.org|[UC]²]]) which aims to further develop the PALM-4U urban climate model and to establish it as an operational tool for communities and city planners. The MOSAIK consortium consists of partners from entire Germany that have joined their forces to develop PALM-4U, an urban climate model of unprecedented spatial resolution and computational performance and which allows simulations of large cities of a size of up to 2.000 km² with grid-resolved buildings. The first funding period of MOSAIK was from 2016 to 2019. Since September 2019 the second phase has started and will involve further development of PALM-4U.

 * Nesting to large scale models.
 * Large-eddy simulation mode, which allows to estimate turbulence induced fluctuations (e.g. peak concentrations or wind gusts) for the first time with a PALM-4U.
-* Scale-dependent turbulence and building parameterizations to run with varying resolution from 1-100 m.
-* Graphical user interface for end users such as city planners, which allows to set up the model, implement planning scenarios, conduct simulations, and visualize the model output data.
