GFS Both initial condition and boundary condition from NCEP GFS data. 3DVAR DVAR analysis at Z used as the initial condition, and boundary condition from NCEP GFS. Only Radar radial velocity at Z assimilated (total # of data points = 65,195). 4DVAR DVAR analysis at Z used as initial condition, and boundary condition from NCEP GFS. The radar radial velocity at 4 times: , 05, 10, and 15, are assimilated (total # of data points = 262,445).

Oct Real data experiments

Oct For general cases, the performance of WRF 4D-Var is comparable with WRF 3D-Var. For some fast developing, fine scale cases such as squall line, tropical cyclone, heavy rainfall case, WRF 4D-Var does a much better job than 3D- Var.

Oct Software Engineering Performance of WRF 4D-Var Ability to assimilation all kinds of observation as 3D-Var (Radiance and Radar). Both serial and parallel runs are supported. Tested Platforms: IBM with XLF, Linux with PGI,INTEL & G95, Mac G5 with G95 & XLF. Multi-incremental 4D-Var. Flexible assimilation time window (for example, 15 minutes ~ 6 hours)

Oct Preliminary Disk IO Optimization-Case Study Trade memory for Disk IO in 4D-Var Domain size : 151x118x31 Resolution :4km Time-step : 25s Time window :15m # of iterations : 60 Obs. : OSSE radar wind # of obs. : In this case, 82% disk IO was replaced by memory IO

Oct On-going Works Remove Disk IO which is used as communication among WRF 4D-Var components, ESMF is a candidate.(~50% wall-clock time reduction, improve parallel scalability) Cleanup solve_em_ad (~90% cost), trade re-computation with memory (another ~50% wall-clock time reduction).
