Your abstract, all on single page with the above header. Do not
include any figures or other formatting. Restrict it to less than
about 300 words. Do not use your space to explain, for example, what
sensitivity analysis, adjoints, or data assimilation, VAR, or
ensembles are, or why they are generally useful. Instead, assume that
your readers will be knowledgeable people in, at least, a related
field. Remember that your purpose is to state enough so that some
members of the committee can conclude that your presentation is
appropriate for this workshop and so that they can discern which
session best fits your work. Most presentations will be approximately
20 min, with additional time for questions. So think about what is
reasonable for you to cover clearly in that time. We prefer that you
cover a few things well rather than many things poorly. Also, carefully read
the additional instructions above.
