Les Houches Summer School Session
'Atmospheric Boundary Layers: Concepts, Observations, and Numerical Simulations'
17-27 June 2008
In this summer school, PhD students and young scientists will get an introduction in the latest developments in theoretical concepts, observations and numerical techniques applied in boundary-layer meteorology. Outstanding lecturers will present major issues in their field of competence in a number of seminars. In addition, in the modelling and simulation session, participants will get hands-on experience with a selection of numerical techniques to study boundary-layer flows.

Les Houches is a resort village in the Chamonix valley in the French Alps. Established in 1951, the Physics School is located in a group of chalets surrounded by meadows and woods, at an altitude of 1150 m facing the Mont-Blanc range - a very favourable environment for intellectual activity in ideal surroundings for hiking, mountaineering and sight-seeing. The Physics School is affiliated with Université Joseph Fourier and Institut National Polytechnique de Grenoble, and is supported by the Ministère de la Jeunesse, de l'Education Nationale et de la Recherche, the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) and the Direction des Sciences de la Matière du Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique (CEA/DSM). Centre de Physique des Houches, Côte des Chavants, F-74310 Les Houches. Directeur Martial Ducloy, tél. : 01 49 40 39 00 ou 04 50 54 40 69 , fax. : 04 50 55 53 25
