The AOMIP approach has been to leverage the existing financial support of each project participant for a comparative analysis of different models and scientific results. This approach has pro vided a unique opportunity to coordinate studies nationally and internatio nally via a set of carefully-planned numerical experiments covering the mo st important processes and interactions.  A clear advantage is that each p articipant is able to work with her/his specific research theme using simu lation results from more than a single model and to analyze differences an d test hypotheses using a multi-model suite of outputs.  The result is a s ynthesis that integrates observational and modeling efforts toward the ove rall goal of developing advanced Arctic models able to accurately reconstr uct past\, describe current\, and predict future Arctic conditions. In thi s regard\, FAMOS’s approach will be similar AOMIP’s one and we view FAMOS as a “collaboratory” i.e.\, a collaborative frame-work wherein modelers an d observers discuss results\, problems\, and new ideas\, all with the goal s of model improvement and better understanding of the Arctic climate syst em.\n\nParticipants include several speakers from MIT and WHOI.\n\nMore in formation here and here.Tickets: http://web.whoi.edu/famos/meeting-5-novem ber-1-4-2016/.
