8.15-8.45 Registration

8.45 Welcome/Logistics from CEOP/WCRP (Benedict)

9.00 CEOP Model Output Framework and Workshop Overview(Benedict/Bosilovich)

9.15 Science Overveiw and Applications for CEOP Model Datasets (Koike/Bosilovich)

11.00 Reference Site Data Connection/Status; EOP-3 “Composite” dataset description 2(Williams1, Williams2)

11.30 CEOP Model Output Providers Presentations (30 minutes maximum)

Each Modeling Center will provide a detailed presentation of the status of the work under their authority, including systems, milestones, future plans, and schedule. Presenters should focus on issues pertinent to providing input to the generation of CEOP Model Output for coordination with CEOP “EOP “composite” data sets and science goals.

- ECPC (Roads/Kanamitsu/Ruane)
- Uk Met (Earnshaw)
- BMRC (Rikus)


13.00 CEOP Model Output Providers Presentations (Continued)

- NCEP (Mitchell)
- GMAO (Bosilovich)
- JMA (Matsumura)
- JMA (Ose)
- GLDAS (Rodell)
- CPTEC (Marengo/Chou)
- NCMRWF (Iyengar)

8.30 Specialized Topics (15-20 minutes each)

Presentations focused on cross-cutting CEOP model output data issues such as data generation, formating, archiving, retrieval, application and future strategies for CEOP model data integration, visualization and a CEOP data validation/calibration framework.
- GKSS(Ismer)
- ECMWF (Viterbo)
- MPI (Toussaint)
- CEOP Data Integration Concept/Demo (Enloe, Burford, McDonald)
- Independent Model Evaluation Concept (Potter)
- Preparatory Work for CEOP Model Intercomparisons(Tamagawa/K. Yang/Koudelova)
- GEWEX Modeling and Prediction Panel (GMPP) Strategy/results (Polcher)


11.00 CEOP Model Output Strategy Discussion

Discussions will continue and parallel working sessions will be set up as required to address specific issues associated with CEOP Model Output topics.including CEOP efforts to improve model physics parameterization for climate predictions and global change projections as well as coordination with ongoing model inter-comparison projects and other modeling initiatives. In this context, the group will be challenged to define the framework for a CEOP “independent” Model Validation Project.

13.30 Breakout Discussions Continued at Required

- Specialized Regional Modeling Issues (Bollasina)
- Assessing models against flux stations: Overarching Lessons (Mitchell)


16.00 Plenary Session (All Participants)/Open Discussion and Wrap-up

- Bosilovich

Working Group/Discussion Leads will be given time to report out on the results of the parallel sessions and final deliberations will be undertaken by all participants.
