My research currently is in the general area of Tornadogenesis. More specifically, my computing needs are for simulation of strong-to-violent nocturnal tornadogenesis. I plan on doing a simulation of a storm, mesocyclone, tornado cyclone, and finally the tornado itself with a model of unprecedented resolution in its field. .5 to 5m in the vertical and 2 to 5m in the horizontal of a storm that's likely in excess of 60 square kilometers. I don't know if the committee appreciates the impact that these deadly storms have, and how little research has been done in isolating what most favors nocturnal events like these.
