1. Practice for Real Cases
Master’s student at UC Davis
Kiyoung Lee is my supervisor

2. Recompile WRF with the real case
./compile em_real (no need to clean for serial code)
./clean –a (for OMP code)
./configure (option 8 on moe)
./compile em_real
Prepare meteorological files (met_xxx)
Need to run WPS (next class)
Let’s try test data set on the WRF website this time
Modify namelist.input if needs (later)

11. Practice for Real Cases
cp namelist.input.jan00 namelist.input (no need to change)
Download wps_30km.tar.gz from the WRF website for
practicing
Parallel to WRFV3, create a directory DATA
Unzip and untar the file to DATA directory
gunzip wps_30km.tar.gz
tar xvf wps_30km.tar
Link those met_xxx files to em_real directory
cd /directory/em_real
ln –s /directory/DATA/met_* .

12. Practice for Real Cases
Execute real.exe
After generating wrfinput_d01 (wrfinput_d02 etc.) &
wrfbdy_d01, execute wrf.exe for simulations/forecasts
Use RIP4 to plot
10-m wind vectors
2-m temperature and moisture (color one of fields) + map
850 mb temperature + moisture (color one of fields) + map
500 height and vorticity (color one of fields) + map
