MUSICA Side Meeting - June 2023

The Multiscale Infrastructure for Chemistry and Aerosols (MUSICA) project will host a side meeting during the WRF/MPAS Users' Workshop. MUSICA will become the next generation community infrastructure for research on atmospheric chemistry and aerosols. Its capability to unify various spatio-temporal scales, couple to other Earth System components, and have process-level modularization will allow advances on topics ranging from fundamental atmospheric chemistry research to air quality to climate and couplings between ecosystems. As such, it will combine and enhance capabilities of current climate and chemistry transport models (including WRF-Chem) provide. The meeting will provide a short update on MUSICA activities, demonstrate the web-based MusicBox tool, and discuss next steps and future plans. The MUSICA project is specifically wanting to receive feedback on the project's upcoming activities and encourages new collaborations for MUSICA development.
