Training on dispersion modelling with FLEXPART 10: 1-3 July 2019

A 3-day training includes theory on and exercises with the Lagrangian particle dispersion model FLEXPART 10. The basic parameterizations, as well as specific ones for version 10 will be covered. Several exercises will illustrate the range of application of the model: volcanic eruptions, radionuclides, green-house gases, dust, etc. Depending on the interest of participants, the operational usage can also be covered.

This training is for both beginners as well as experienced uses that want to learn more about the physics of FLEXPART, the range of applications and/or the FLEXPART 10 specifications. However, a few basic prerequisites apply: Good English language skills, familiarity with basic Linux commands, some scientific background, and at least basic knowledge on atmospheric physics.

The training will be held at ZAMG (Vienna, Austria). The maximum number of participants is limited to 16. Following the training remotely (with a Skype link), will be possible for an unlimited number of people. Doing the exercises, and asking questions by Skype will be possible for a limited number of people (probably 5). The plan is to record all the sessions, and make them available on flexpart.eu. Costs for the training and lunch are covered by ZAMG, travel and accommodation costs have to be paid by the participants.
