Objectives and Schedule

The CSDMS Meeting 2011 will bring together CSDMS members to present new scientific insights in the modeling of surface dynamics and the impact of time and process scales, new advances in cyber-infrastructure, development and use of CSDMS models in education, and to allow the CSDMS Working and Focus Research Groups to engage in cross-domain discussions. Our Impact of time and process scales theme will address state-of-the art hydrological, ice, earth and ocean modeling; advances in the use of the CSDMS Model-coupling Tool (CMT); high performance computing projects; and will offer various hands-on clinics on specific community models as well as on model tools and protocols.

Conference set up

For the latest schedule: CSDMS Mtg 2011 Schedule (drafted September 27, 2011)

The 3 day conference (October 28-30^th) is being held partly over the weekend so as to have a minimal impact on peoples courses and teaching schedules. The program includes keynote speakers, hands-on clinics about models as well as on model protocols and standards, and poster sessions (note: poster boards are sized 4' wide x 6' high). There will also be time for each of the Working Groups and Focus Research Groups to meet. We have asked for a registration fee this year to cover workshop materials; refreshments, lunches and the dinner banquet; plus local transportation from the hotel to the meeting/dinner venues.

Logistics

The Meeting Hotel:	Millennium Harvest House
The Meeting Venue:	UCAR Center Green Campus (CG1)
Transportation to/from the Hotel and Meeting:	University of Colorado buses will be arranged to pick up participants around 8:00am from the hotel to the meeting venue. Around 5:45pm the buses will take participants from the meeting back to the hotel. In case you miss the bus or need to arrive/depart at other times, you can catch a UCAR shuttle.
