Systematic multi-scale modelling and analysis for geophysical flow ((02) M02)

• Subject Area: Mathematics
• Term: since 2016
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 274762653

The project M2 aims at systematically deriving new numerical and stochastic methods for the energy-consistent representation of subgrid-scale processes of geophysical flows. We will systematically develop two new approaches for energy-consistent subgrid-scale parameterizations. One approach is stochastic, while the second is a multi-scale finite element approach, which can also include stochastic elements. While we have in mind two concrete complex models, ICON and FESOM, our methods will be general enough for use in other Earth System Models too.
