In this lecture will deal with the topic of atmospheric modelling. We will start with an overview
about different types of atmospheric models, followed by a short course on the basic structure of the atmosphere
and the governing equations for atmospheric dynamics and transport.
As an example for conceptual mathematical models we will first consider lower dimensional models
of the stratospheric Brewer-Dobson circulation (e.g., two-dimensional Transformed Eulerian Mean).
Thereafter, we will discuss different modelling techniques (e.g., Eulerian and Lagrangian modelling frameworks) and
different numerical approaches used in atmospheric models. Here, we will consider finite difference, finite volume,
spectral and finite element methods and different model grids and vertical coordinate systems used in
atmospheric models. A short outline is:
- Introduction: Types of ``models''
- Atmospheric structure and model equations for transport and dynamics
- Conceptual lower-dimensional mathematical models (example: stratospheric Brewer-Dobson circulation)
- Numerical models
- Numerical approaches for atmospheric models
- Numerical methods for advection
