The workshop will consist of one day of presentations and invited talks describing the different components of the NEMS modeling system and the NMMB model. The following day will include a practical session where attendees will be able to run a sample NMMB forecast case on the Yellowstone NCAR supercomputer, using a pre-installed version of NEMS. Users will then be able to display the NMMB output using provided NCL scripts.
