TEACHING AND RESEARCH
AREAS
Dr. Semazzi's
research focus is in climate modeling and the development of atmospheric
numerical models. Over the last four years, he has been directing
the development of a nonhydrostatic semi-Lagrangian global atmospheric
prediction model. A scalable version of this model is being developed
and realistic parameterization of the physical processes is being
encorporated in the model. Dr. Semazzi has collaborated on a wide
spectrum of climate studies. These include the ongoing development
of seasonal climate prediction capability for tropical regions,
modeling of the Sahelian climate, and the role of bottom orography
on climate.
