= About us=
== PALM headquarters ==
The PALM model system has been developed and is maintained by the [https://www.muk.uni-hannover.de/243.html?&L=1 PALM group] at the [http://www.muk.uni-hannover.de?&L=1 Institute of Meteorology and Climatology] (IMUK) of Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany. The research at IMUK focuses on studies of micro- and mesoscale turbulent atmospheric boundary layers using large-eddy simulations. The work also involves advancements of the PALM model system, particularly the development of highly scalable and parallelized methods for all parts of the simulation process chain (numerics, I/O, and visualization).
