Accelerating Extreme-Scale Numerical Weather Prediction

Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) and climate simulations have been intimately connected with progress in supercomputing since the first numerical forecast wasmade about 65 years ago. The biggest challenge to state-of-the-art computational NWP arises today from its own software productivity shortfall. The application software at the heart of most NWP services is ill-equipped to efficiently ada...

The Advanced Regional Prediction System (ARPS), storm-scale numerical weather prediction and data assimilation

In this paper, we first describe the current status of the Advanced Regional Prediction System of the Center for Analysis and Prediction of Storms at the University of Oklahoma. A brief outline of future plans is also given. Two rather successful cases of explicit prediction of tornadic thunderstorms are then presented. In the first case, a series of supercell storms that produced a historical ...

The Role of Meso-γ-scale Numerical Weather Prediction and Visualization for Weather-sensitive Decision Making

Advanced Numerical Methods for Numerical Weather Prediction

The long term goal of this research is to explore new numerical methods for the next generation global atmospheric model. The reason for considering new methods is due to the paradigm shift in high performance computing from vector computers to distributed memory machines. To take full advantage of the new architectures the global domain must now be partitioned into subdomains/ elements that ca...
