Call for 2024 R-CCS International HPC Computational Science Internship
RIKEN Center for Computational Science(R-CCS) offers an internship
program targeting graduate students (Ph.D program) affiliated with
overseas universities or institutions.
The internship program is a project fostering researchers dedicated to
HPC (High Performance Computer) technology and computational science
with the aim to orient interns to R&D in leading-edge computational
science by providing them with an opportunity to work in R-CCS research
teams for a better understanding of computational science technology.
-Internship period:
Applicants and hosting research teams may set appropriate periods by
mutual agreement for the internship duration, up to 90 days between
April 2024 and March 21, 2025.
-Location:
Kobe or Tokyo (High Performance Artificial Intelligence Systems Research
Team only)
-Qualifications:
Applicants must belong to a university whose head or representative can
issue a formal letter of request on behalf of applicants (Ph.D.
program). PhD-level students with fundamental knowledge in the field of
computational science and with a specific research focus are desirable.
-Number to be admitted:
Term 1: Internship period mid-April - June 2024, up to 10 students.
Term 2: Internship period July 2024 - March 21, 2025, up to 20 students.
Approximately 30 students will be accepted in total. However, the number
of participants may vary depending on the situation.
-Expenses and allowance:
Commuting expenses, Lodging expenses, Travel expenses, and Internship
allowance will be paid.
-Application: Application documents as given below must be submitted in
advance.

Subject: Invitation to Model Intercomparison Case Study on Mixed-Phase
Cloud Chamber -- International Cloud Modeling Workshop (ICMW) 2024 in
South Korea
Date: Mon, 30 Oct 2023 15:00:00 -0600
From: Sisi Chen <sisichen(a)ucar.edu>

Dear colleagues and friends,
We cordially invite you to participate in a model intercomparison case
study that will be featured in the upcoming International Cloud Modeling
Workshop (ICMW) 2024 in July. This specific case study focuses on the
cloud chamber simulation of mixed-phase clouds, and aims to foster a
detailed understanding of mixed-phase processes within a controlled
environment.
Workshop Schedule and Venue:
Date:8 to 12 July 2024
Location:Yonsei University, South Korea.
This workshop precedes the International Conference on Clouds and
Precipitation (ICCP) in Jeju, South Korea. More information is available
at https://iccp2024.kr/ <https://iccp2024.kr/>
Case Description & Science Objectives:
This case is focusing on the model intercomparison of mixed-phase
processes in the Pi cloud chamber. The detailed case description with
model configuration can be found in this Google Document: PI chamber
mixed-phase case description
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Q_I0hx31kulrDaIFoezJGIQTEVyBYBtNVQuhSom…>(let
us know if you could not access the file).
The objectives of this case study are to answer:
* How well do models represent mixed-phase processes, in particular
those processes that determine the interactions of (supercooled)
liquid and ice?
* How supercooled liquid responds to various ice nucleus injection
rates?
* What is the critical point (microphysical conditions) when cloud
glaciation happens?
We anticipate that the collective insights gained from this
intercomparison effort will significantly contribute to the fundamental
and process-level understanding of mixed-phase cloud processes.
Participation:
Individuals/groups who are interested in cloud modeling using DNS, LES,
parcel models, theoretical models, ML emulators, and other numerical
tools are all welcome to participate in the model comparison project.
Feel free to forward it to others who are interested in participating.
If you are interested in participating in the model intercomparison,
please reply to Sisi Chen (sisichen(a)ucar.edu <mailto:sisichen@ucar.edu>)
by December 20, 2023, with your Name, Institution, and Email.You will
then be added to the group mailing list for further information and updates.
Overall Timeline:
Oct 2023 Announcements & invitations
Dec 20, 2023 Confirmation of participation
May 1, 2024 Results received from the participants
May-July 2024 Data post-processing & communication with participants
July 8-12 2024 International Cloud Modeling Workshop in Seoul
Post workshop Paper summarizing the case
We’d also like to bring to your attention that there will be aCloud
Chamber Workshop and Cloud Probe Workshopon the weekend following the
ICMW and preceding the ICCP, from 13 to 14 July 2024 at the National
Institute for Meteorological Studies (NIMS). Further details on the
agenda for these workshops will be available soon on the ICCP website.
We very much look forward to your participation and seeing you in South
Korea!
