Book excerpt: Geosciences particularly numerical weather predication, are demanding the highest levels of computer power available. The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, with its experience in using supercomputers in this field, organizes a workshop every other year bringing together manufacturers, computer scientists, researchers and operational users to share their experiences and to learn about the latest developments. This volume provides an excellent overview of the latest achievements and plans for the use of new parallel techniques in the fields of meteorology, climatology and oceanography.
