This workshop provides an overview of atmospheric convection and the broader dynamics of monsoon systems with a particular focus on the north American Monsoon.
The workshop consists of 3 days of lectures, giving a basic overview of atmospheric thermodynamics, stability and moist convection on day 1, before moving onto the theory of monsoon dynamics and the role of convective mesoscale organization as components of monsoon systems. Day 3 of the lectures will introduce topics at a research level, including some of the recent ground-breaking global km-scale climate simulations. The last two days of the workshop give participants the opportunity to investigate some of the aspects of monsoons in observations and simulations in hands on sessions.

Grants: A limited number of grants are available to support the attendance of selected participants, with priority given to participants from developing countries. There is no registration fee.
