Abstract
The chemical composition of Cepheid variables can provide information on the chemo-dynamical evolution of the Galaxy and beyond. The standard method for determining atmospheric parameters and abundances of Cepheids is based on one-dimensional plane-parallel hydrostatic model atmospheres, where convection is treated by Mixing Length Theory. We check the validity of the quasi-static approach against a two- dimensional dynamical Cepheid model computed with CO5BOLD. The spectroscopic investigation of the two-dimensional Cepheid model allowed to derive projection factors and to explain the residual line-of-sight velocity of Galactic Cepheids, long known as the ``K-term'', by line shifts of convective origin. Moreover, hydrostatic 1D model atmospheres can provide unbiased estimates of stellar parameters and abundances of Cepheids for particular phases of their pulsations.
