ALADIN Committee for Scientific and System/maintenance Issues (CSSI) and
Support Team (ST) membership
After the last GA and PAC here are the organisational
ALADIN arrangements for CSII and Support Team (updated on June 11, 2008).
The partition between CSSI (with the extra coordination of a Chairperson) and Support Team is sometimes rather arbitrary. The idea used below for "border cases" is that the chain of responsibility cannot loop twice and that hence structural (already existing for most of them) coordination responsibilities should not be formally subject to one more level of coordination. The Programme Manager is mentioned there, not to ask him to help himself, but for better showing the complementarity of tasks within the Support Team.
Concerning its further evolution, the CSSI+ST composition is meant to be discussed at each ALADIN Workshop.
Chosen 2008 CSSI Membership :
Chairperson* : Piet Termonia
Interfacing issues and Scientific coordination with HIRLAM : Piet Termonia
Coordination for networking and interoperability : Tomas Kral
Data assimilation : Claude Fischer
Dynamics and LBC coupling : Pierre Benard
Maintenance : Ryad El Khatib
Numerical efficiency issues : Martina Tudor
Observations and Monitoring : Alena Trojakova
Physics : Bart Catry
Predictability and LAM EPS : Edit Hagel
Surface : Jean-Francois Mahfouf
Verification : Marek Jerczynski
Responsible members for two parallel emerging activities (Nowcasting and LAM-Climate
-or, more exactly in the second case, long integrations' problematic-)
have been included in the above structure :
LAM-Climate : Ales Farda
Nowcasting : Yong Wang
(*) the role of the Chairperson will not be hierarchical but of coordination, information exchange and
representation, in agreement with the PM.
Chosen 2008 Support Team Membership:
Consortium level coordination: Jean-Francois Geleyn (ALADIN PM, for the record)
Consortium level cooperation support (LACE): Dijana Klaric (LACE Project Leader)
Consortium level cooperation support (MF): Claude Fischer (Toulouse LTM)
Documentation officer: ????
Information officer: Maria Derkova
Administration and PM assistance: Patricia Pottier
Secretarial support: Jean Maziejewski
NB2: One untold rule in filling the full CSSI Members and Support Team position was to avoid potential ambiguities or
conflicting responsibilities. Hence no PAC Members nor LACE Working Group Leaders (or equivalent) came in line
for the above positions.
