WRF training

Having training on January's weekend. Saturday and Sunday morning. WRF(Weather Research and Forecasting) and MM5 (Mesoscale Modelling).. Nice one. On weekend, because the trainers are from Malaysian Meteorological Dept, and they are working on weekdays.. anyhow, i'm looking forward for the end result of this training.. then i can start doing modelling! wow...can't wait (even though i feel lousy right now..aarrgghh!)

and currently doing training, accessing linux server system using windoes, xmanager. cool~

Current Doing

Yeah! Finally i can update this blog with some useful info by me..ha ha

Currently i'm doing pentad-climatology for Sea Level Pressure, and try to concentrate on longitude range 60^oE to 140^oE. and now doing some time series to see the pattern of the Siberian high. still in data-extraction stage. i hope can go so much faster. please 'distraction', leave me alone!

.......still having errors! AAARGHH!!

me: fast, faster!!

GrADS, AOGS2010, Thesis

Three things that i have to do in once...not yet including sculpturing my body! anyway, i just got task from Prof A, mapping some biological data..well, i like the work, just time to complete it may take for awhile, which will definitely have to share with time that i have to brainstorming the Abstract to be submitted for AOGS2010 (deadline is 1Dec) and considering and reading articles and journal, not to forget studying Dynamic Meteorology, MATLAB and looking back to C/C++ and statistics... wow, my life is full with study..yet i have to enjoy part of it so that i wont be 'regretting' for not doing so. especially going to gym and get the best shape of my life..

me:pray hard for a better life

Writing

oh-keeyyhh...i am now brainstorming what to write (essential items) in 3 topics i am suppose to start writing, Siberian High,ENSO and Arctic Oscillation. and after that ( or during) i will start relating it to the malaysian NE monsoon. (>.<) Sooo many!

me: Feels like i've been brainstorming since 3 months ago! huhu..o yeah, i was distracted by learning Dynamic meteorology by myself and scripting...essential knowledge though. Vectors!! OMG. i need to brush up my vector knowledge. grrr!!!

huh~

It's been about 3 months...i have produce nothing. i should have done at least a quarter of it. and study on your own is soooooooooooooo.....oooooooooo slow, and i missed a guide from a person named TEACHER. Anyhow anyway, i need to push myself further...Ganbatteeee!!!!!

me: hup hup huuppp!!

Anomaly- GrADS and Scripting

I've been doing this for this week (and last week)...now, i need to do a control file that grab the data and save it...(..and now i'm confused. what should i do next?? i should ask Mr.O...)

it's quite easy actually, but without strong basic it's damn confusing. anyway, manipulating it for real life use can be very confusing. well, i need to learn this a lot more. (including all the AO, ENSO writing and Dynamic meteorology stuff)
