Prerequisites: Graduate students, post-docs, and professionals working in hydrology and/or the atmospheric sciences are invited to participate. Prior hydrologic and/or atmospheric modeling experience is advised. Unix/Linux command line operation required. Specific topics to be covered during the workshop include: * Conceptualization and structure of the WRF-Hydro system * Description of physics components options within WRF-Hydro v5.0 * Model porting and compilation and overview of parallel computing with WRF-Hydro * Model input data preparation * Model configuration and execution * Visualization and post-processing of model output * Case studies (participants learn how to use the system in both one-way uncoupled and two-way coupled modes with the community WRF atmospheric model) * Setup and use of the open source Rwrfhydro hydrologic model evaluation package * Open discussion on class participant interests and applications Class participants will receive in-depth training via lectures and hands-on activities on the implementation and use of the WRF-Hydro system where all hands-on tutorial activities will be conducted in a formal computer laboratory located at NCAR. The course will be held at NCAR<http://ncar.ucar.edu/> in Boulder, CO. Included in the registration fee are course tuition, facilities costs, catered lunches and light refreshments, and shuttle transportation from the hotel to/from campus.
