With this e-mail we would like to draw your attention on the

                   SECOND HELMHOLTZ-INSTITUTE SUMMER-SCHOOL on
                "SCIENTIFIC SUPERCOMPUTING IN CLIMATE RESEARCH"
                        August 26 - September 20, 2002
                           University of Potsdam
                             Potsdam, Germany

The purpose of the summer school is to expose students and researchers 
from the applied sciences and computational modeling communities to the 
use of modern supercomputers in climate research.

There will be courses on various aspects of climate modeling and
contemporary numerical discretization techniques (computational fluid
dynamics). These will be supplemented by computational workshops and
tutorials.

LECTURERS:    GUY PIERRE BRASSEUR (MPIM, HAMBURG)
              PETER HAYNES (DAMTP, CAMBRIDGE)
              JULIAN HUNT (UNIVERSITY COLLEGE, LONDON)
              COLIN JONES (SWEDISH MET. & HYDRO. INSTITUTE)
              NIKOLAOS NIKIFORAKIS (DAMTP, CAMBRIDGE)
              JULIA SLINGO (ESSC, UNIVERSITY OF READING)
              ANTONY SLINGO (CGAM, UNIVERSITY OF READING)

SCIENTIFIC DIRECTOR: NIKOLAOS NIKIFORAKIS (DAMTP, CAMBRIDGE)

Applications are invited from students, graduate students, post-docs 
and researchers working in scientific disciplines related to the 
content of the summer school.  Deadline for application is May 15 2001

Grants are available to cover accommodation, travel and living 
expenses. Numbers will be limited and those interested are advised to
