Training 2018

GFDL and EMC held an initial FV3 training targeted towards technical developers; the goal of this initial training was to focus on the detailed description of  the FV3GFS forecast model (dynamic core, solver and physics) and various utilities, and testing of the FV3GFS  for global atmospheric applications. A demo on how to run FV3GFS using the FV3GFS workflow including post processing and verification was also part of this training.

The FV3 initial training was conducted at NCWCP/NCEP in College Park, Maryland from Tuesday June 12 through Thursday June 14, 2018.
