Abstract
Problems in atmospheric modeling were counted among the grand challenges a few years ago. For almost a decade there has been extensive research in order to develop modeling software that is capable of utilizing modern high performance computing architectures (see e.g. [3, 103, 118, 154, 176, 181, 186, 201, 235, 237, 302, 333, 342, 418]). High performance inevitably means parallel computing. When dealing with adaptive mesh refinement, parallelization becomes a non-trivial issue for several reasons.
