N°16, published on 8 February 2021 | Enjoy the 16th and last joint ALADIN-HIRLAM Newsletter ! This last edition of the ALADIN-HIRLAM NewsLetter offers a last Tour of ALADIN and HIRLAM activities (national and project reports) in 2020 that ends with a look back at 30 year working together in ALADIN, and in a close and more formalised collaboration with HIRLAM during the last 3 years. Furthermore, AEMET colleagues, Inger-Lise Frogner and Jeanette Onvlee share with us some memories of Antonio Garcia-Moya after his shocking passing in December. We also introduce a special issue of the (French) journal “La Météorologie†that is dedicated to Jean-François Geleyn, after the symposium held in February last year to pay a tribute to the scientific career of Jean-François. We announce two new Doctors from Casablanca. Congratulations ! Last but not least, a summary list of upcoming events, planned for 2021, is available. | |

This summer 2017 edition is supposed to be mainly dedicated to the “27th ALADIN Workshop & HIRLAM All Staff Meeting 2017†that took place on 3-6 April 2017 in Helsinki (Finland). We like to thank all those that contributed to this Newsletter with their articles. However, not so many articles were received. Therefore, we have added the full list of talks and posters with a (direct) link to the pdf of the presentations. Please be reminded that the sessions have been recorded and can be viewed on youtube. Furthermore a special focus is proposed on 2 specific articles: AROME for nowcasting (AROME-NWC) ; Tuning the implementation of the radiation scheme ACRANEB2. The editorial recalls the (already long) ALADIN-HIRLAM story and presents the convergence roadmap. We hope you enjoy reading the ninth ALADIN-HIRLAM Newsletter. Thanks for all authors for their contributions". Patricia and Frank |

N°5, published on 31-08-2015 | I am glad to provide you with the fifth edition of the combined Newsletter of the HIRLAM and ALADIN consortia. This edition is mainly dedicated to the “25th ALADIN Workshop & HIRLAM All Staff Meeting 2015†that took place on 13-16 April 2015 in Elsinore (Denmark), with additional several articles based on other work. 90 people from 23 countries gave more than 50 presentations and presented about 35 posters. Some working groups and many side meetings also took place during the week. The ALADIN Local Team Managers held their 18th meeting (the first one ever where all ALADIN partners were represented). The ALADIN CSSI and the HIRLAM Management Group had their annual coordination meeting on Friday 17, at the Danish Met Institute premises in Copenhagen. Please consult the dedicated webpage on the aladin website for the agenda, the list of participants, the pdf files of the presentations and posters, the minutes of the discussions and working groups, some photos. The videos of the presentations are also available, on a protected part of the aladin website : please use the "log in" buttom, at the top left under the horizontal menu on the aladin home page. Once identified, you have access to the "Partners only" part of the aladin website, including the videos. If you need the user/password to log in, just ask me ! A new part about “Publications†has tentatively been added in this newsletter, with the aim to announce or comment papers published in NWP specialised international journals. As this is the first time such a list is included in the Newsletter, the information used for it is likely still incomplete; hopefully, it will be better the next time. I thank the authors for their contributions and hope you enjoy reading the fifth ALADIN-HIRLAM Newsletter. Patricia |

N°4, published on 27-02-2015 | The forth edition of the combined Newsletter of the HIRLAM and ALADIN consortia is dedicated to a “Tour d’ALADIN & d’HIRLAM†, with contributions describing main achievements at our meteorological institutes in 2014. Finally a list of events that are planned for 2015 is added. At the consortium level, 2014 saw the first joint meeting of the ALADIN General Assembly and the HIRLAM Council (Reading, 2nd of December) where a joint declaration was unanimously adopted by the Directors. It stresses the ALADIN/HIRLAM commitment to work together with the aim of forming one single consortium by the end of the 2016-2020 MoUs. At this turning point for our consortia, we lost the one who started the merge between the ALADIN and the HIRLAM consortia, Jean-François Geleyn (see Piet Termonia’s tribute). Jean-François created ALADIN in 1991. He acted as ALADIN Program Manager, the main executive officer of the ALADIN Consortium, years before this position was officially defined in the ALADIN Memorandum of Understanding. Until 2010, he led the life of the ALADIN consortium. On 8 January 2015, the ALADIN community lost its icon and beacon. I thank the authors for their contributions and hope you enjoy the forth ALADIN-HIRLAM Newsletter ... and bear with me as it is the first combined Newsletter I did on my own. After 7 years as HIRLAM scientific secretary, Tilly said goodbye to us last December to join a new position at CGI in Rotterdam. Patricia |

N°1, published on 27-09-2013 | This is the first edition of the combined Newsletter of the ALADIN and HIRLAM consortia. We decided to join forces because the researchers from both consortia are working closer and closer together. Furthermore, the number of contributions is continuously decreasing because we publish increasingly in peer reviewed literature. This Newsletter is mainly devoted to presentations made by ALADIN and HIRLAM staff in the joint ALADIN/ HIRLAM Workshop/All Staff Meeting (ASM) that took place on 15-19 April 2013 in Reykjavik, hosted by the Icelandic Meteorological Organisation ... |
