Joint Meeting: Atmosphere + Forecasting and Prediction WGs 08.05.2024

Our next meeting will be a joint one with the Forecasting & Prediction WG.

** For a calendar invite, simply click on the relevant calendar link below **

• When: 08/05/2024 14:00 to 08/05/2024 15:00
• Zoom Meeting Link
• Add to Google Calendar
• Add to Office365 Calendar

Agenda:

1. Admin: Volunteer for taking today’s meeting minutes to post here on the Forum.

2. Introduction: Atmosphere and Forecasting & Prediction WGs (5 + 5 mins)

3. Single Column Model (SCM): presentation by Martin Dix (15 + 5mins)
   The UM includes a SCM configuration. This includes the full UM atmosphere and land surface physics, but replaces the dynamics by advective tendencies derived from observations or from a full model. It’s a useful tool for testing physics parameterisations because it runs quickly and gives detailed per timestep diagnostics.
   Martin will present some tests comparing JULES and CABLE land surface schemes driven with data from ERA5 and from a global UM run.

4. Earth Model Column Collaboratory (EMC²): Calum Knight will give an introduction to EMC², an open-source ground-based lidar and radar instrument simulator and subcolumn generator for large-scale models (10 + 5 mins)

5. Discussion: Ideas for future collaborative projects and joint meetings for Atmosphere and Forecasting & Prediction WGs (15 mins)
