Importance of cloud microphysics in numerical weather models

Trude Eidhammer is a project scientist at National Centre for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), Boulder, Colorado. Eidhammer has Master of Science at University of Bergen from 2000 titled "The influence of dust/aerosols in the Earth's lower and middle atmosphere", with support and supervision from Prof. Ove Havnes at UiT.   Her PhD is from University of Wyoming, and she had a postdoctor position at Colorado State University before starting at NCAR in 2008. 

Eidhammers is invited to give this talk at UiT is through the nICE project led by Muhammad Shakel Virk and Yngve Birkelund. Her expertise in numerical weather modelling and cloud micro physics is important for the nICE research on atmospheric icing, and Eidshammers contribution is also well known through the Thompson-Eidhammer aerosol aware micro physics scheme implemented in the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) used by numerous institutions around the world.
