Institutions

The research program is so comprehensive that it is far beyond the possibility of a single research institute or some bilateral cooperation but requires various institutes joining their experimental, computational, and theoretical capabilities. The research unit brings together experts from meteorology, physics, fluid dynamics, and mathematics in an interdisciplinary group with expertise covering all essential methodological aspects of the topic, i.e. measurements and their interpretation, computational modeling, and theory, which are needed for substantial progress in the treatment of GW dynamics in models.The following institutions participate:
