Implementation of Observation-nudging Based Fdda into Wrf for Supporting Atec Test Operations

چکیده
In the last few years, NCAR and the Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC) have jointly developed a real-time rapid-cycling FDDA and forecast (RTFDDA) system. This MM5-based system has been deployed and is running operationally at five Army testing ranges. The ATEC RTFDDA data assimilation procedure was developed based on the observation-nudging scheme in the standard MM5 (Stauffer and Seaman 1994). It was imported into the WRF model as a part of the ATEC modeling transition from the MM5 to WRF framework. The basic code porting was completed in April 2005. Since then, the WRF-FDDA system has been tested with real-time cycling for the Dugway Provide Ground (DPG), in parallel with the MM5-based RTFDDA system running at the range. To achieve a fair comparison between the WRFand MM5based systems, the WRF model is configured to have the same domain configurations and similar physics to those of the operational MM5.

This study investigates the impact of the Flux-Adjusting Surface Data Assimilation System (FASDAS) and the four-dimensional data assimilation (FDDA) using analysis nudging on the simulation of a monsoon depression that formed over India during the 1999 Bay of Bengal Monsoon Experiment (BOBMEX) field campaign. FASDAS allows for the indirect assimilation/adjustment of soil moisture and soil tempe...

Measurements at the Grand Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve support a range of research activities aimed at improving the understanding of the atmospheric fate and transport of mercury. Routine monitoring was enhanced by two intensive measurement periods conducted at the site in summer 2010 and spring 2011. Detailed meteorological data are required to properly represent the weather condit...
