RTG Course: Stochastic aspects of modelling and parameterisation

Lecturer: Christian Franzke

When: January 16-18, 2023

Where: Hamburg

This short course will provide an introduction to stochastic methods used in climate and weather modeling and analysis. The course will start with an introduction to stochastic processes and stochastic differential equations. We will also cover stochastic mode reduction methods and current parameterization schemes in weather and climate models.
The course will consist of lectures and practical exercises.
Participants will have to write computer code for the simulation of stochastic processes and stochastic climate models.
The course expects no special mathematical prior knowledge.
