Multi-scale transport and exchange processes in the atmosphere over mountains – programme and experiment

Mountain exchange — Exchange processes govern the transfer of heat, momentum and mass between the ground, the planetary boundary layer and the free atmosphere. Over mountainous terrain, exchange processes include turbulent mixing, breeze systems, gravity wave propagation, and moist convection.

TEAMx is an international research programme that aims at improving our understanding of atmospheric processes specific to mountainous regions. TEAMx targets

Numerical models and observational systems optimized for application over mountainous terrain.
Improved weather forecasts and climate change scenarios over mountains.
Accurate characterization of the global cycles of water, energy and trace gases.

Reach out to the Programme Coordination Office if you want to receive the TEAMx newsletter and learn how to get involved in TEAMx modelling activities and the observational campaign which will start in autumn 2024

Events

The Third TEAMx Workshop has taken place right before the ICAM, on 15&16 June 2023.
The TEAMx Observational Campaign (TOC) will take place September 2024 - September 2025.
