Students have asked for more lessons in English.
English teachers will be there. Encourage students to write and speak in English.
Topic
Storm Nadine. Case of extratropic transition & severe weather over France.
Paper: Pantillon, F., Chaboureau, J.-P. and Richard, E. (2015), Vortex–vortex interaction between Hurricane Nadine (2012) and an Atlantic cut-off dropping the predictability over the Mediterranean. Q.J.R. Meteorol. Soc.. doi: 10.1002/qj.2635 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/qj.2635/abstract

Could focus on clustering of the ensemble ? Different algorithms for clustering?
Tubing .v. clustering. see: http://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/abs/10.1175/1520-0434%281999%29014%3C0741%3ATAATCF%3E2.0.CO%3B2 Ask Linus about this.
TODO
Decide on forecasts: resolution, start date and lengths
PCA in Metview - speak to Linus (he says he has some Fortran code). Or could use R
Try to reproduce the plots in the article.

Notes from Frédéric: (9/Feb)
I just spoke to a colleague of mine teaching statistics. He told me that our second year students that will attend the workshop will have knowledge in PCA and clustering methods via ascending hierarchical classification (with R)
So I think that on Day 2, it would be nice to make them do the PCA for ECMWF t+96 ensemble forecasts (20120920 analysis and forecast for the 20120924, figure 5 of Pantillon), the ascending classification (figure 6) and the clustering (figure 7). We could leave the classification and the clustering as extra questions, to leave room for the stochastic ensemble, the EDA and the class ensemble.
I will also think about the interesting plots that we could do to illustrate this case, for example vertical crosssection of potential vorticity.
Notes
SCM exercises - sensitvity of the model to changing physics. Focus on convection, initiation of deep convection. Stochastic physics, impact on convection? impact of convective scheme?
Do we want the students to run OpenIFS? - probably not enough time / resources
Interested in stochastic physics / ensemble methods.
Can we get observations from HyMEX to add to the metview exercises?
Focus on ensemble modelling and predictability.
Try to include some Hymex observations in metview VM?
Some questions to include:
