2 Outline Motivation Vision Progress Issues Conclusion

3 Motivation

4 Why NCEP? Most of the improvement in weather forecast skill over the past 20 years is due to improving numerical forecast system technology. However, national investment in computing and model development in the geophysical sciences is limited and dispersed. Therefore, it behooves us to leverage this investment with a common modeling framework and shared software development.

6 Why NCEP? Most of the improvement in weather forecast skill over the past 20 years is due to improving numerical forecast system technology. However, national investment in computing and model development in the geophysical sciences is limited and dispersed. Therefore, it behooves us to leverage this investment with a common modeling framework and shared software development.

10 Progress

11 Progress with NCEP The NCEP global forecast system (GFS) with a fully compliant ESMF adoption should be implemented operationally in June (Yang, Moorthi, Young) Features –Stand-alone gridded component –Uses clock, config, logerr –No effect on results or timings

12 Progress with NCEP The GFS already runs successfully in ensemble mode (14 members run concurrently). A stochastic ensemble coupler is being developed. (Yang, Hou) Promising progress toward making GFS a gridded rather than spectral component. (Juang) The B-grid global model (UMO) is near to being ready as a gridded component. (Black) Several other collaborations already support ESMF gridded components.

13 Issues

14 Costs/Benefits of NCEP + Community involvement and lovefests + Common framework for collaboration + Shared software burden - Significant conversion effort - Increased code complexity - More black boxes

15 Costs/Benefits of NCEP Ultimately, the key resources for NCEP (and other institutions) are its working scientists. We must ensure that any framework decisions are the best for our people to continue to develop and maintain world-class geophysical models. ESMF allows each institution to find its comfort level in adopting the framework.

16 Conclusion NCEP continues to participate as a partner in the EMSF experience
