Session description

In the session about modelling of atmospheric physics, the speakers will show how their modelling innovations are advancing our understanding of atmospheric wind farm flows. The numerical methods that will be presented are both physics based as well as techniques from data analytics and machine learning. The topics include turbulence, floating wind turbines, microphysics, gravity waves and wind profile extrapolation.
