'''Development of a High Performance Parallel Large Eddy Simulation Model and its Application to the Atmospheric Boundary Layer''' \\ Responsible: Yign Noh; Siegfried Raasch \\ Project type: Joint project with the Yonsei University, Seoul, Yign Noh (jointly funded by [http://www.dfg.de DFG] and [http://www.nrf.go.kr/html/kr/ KOSEF]) \\ Duration: 01/09/2000 - 31/08/2002 \\\\ This is a joint project together with the [http://gfdl.yonsei.ac.kr/ Department of Atmospheric Sciences] at Yonsei University, South Korea. Its goal is the optimization of PALM for the efficient use on state-of-the-art parallel architectures (i.e. shared memory clusters like the IBM-Regatta) and its application to various problems of atmospheric and oceanic boundary layers (e.g. improvement of mixed layer parameterizations). The project permits the exchange of scientists for two months per year.
