WRF-setups

This repository is an archive of WRF simulations successfully run within the A2e MMC project. These have been tested with a2e-mmc version of WRF (https://github.com/a2e-mmc/WRF), which tracks the NCAR WRF development branch.

For information on how to run the WRF Setup scripts, see templates/README.md.

Requirements for Archives

Each archived case will contain at least the following information:

  • WRF and WPS namelists (namelist.input and namelist.wps, respectively)

  • Initial and boundary condition information

    and/or

  • a WRF setup script that will allow for automatic download of the IC/BC data

  • tslist file (if applicable)

  • any auxiliary input/output information (e.g., cell perturbation files, alternate land use data, etc.)

  • Information on where to download any relevant observations

Archived cases

  • SWiFT_20131108_GFS - Reference simulation of the SWiFT diurnal cycle from 2013-11-08 to 09, used in the coupling comparison study. 48 hrs were simulated with 12 hours of spinup, using the GFS reanalysis dataset.
  • SWiFT_20131108_PertMethodsGroup - Simulations of idealized convective, neutral, and stable conditions extracted from the SWiFT canonical day between 2013-11-08 to 09, used to study different perturbation methods for turbulent inflow generation. Subdirectories contain the input_sounding, namelist, tslist, and output-control file (which reduces the number of variables that are stored in the wrfout_d0* files).
    • convective: 1800-2000 UTC, specified heat flux of 175 W/m^2
  • FINO_20100512 contains the WRF setup script and templates for the offshore FINO simulations for the 13 day period of interest.
