TAWEPI - Thorpex Arctic Weather and Environment Prediction Initiative
TAWEPI's research activities started in April 2007 and large progress has been made in the development of Polar-GEM since then. A new version of the CMC regional NWP model became operational in the spring of 2009, including a northward extension of its high-resolution domain, which now covers m...
