NOAA Global Modeling Workshop 12-13 January 2006NOAA/ESRL FIM design – vertical coordinate Hybrid (sigma/ isentropic) vertical coordinate of the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) flavor Used in NCEP Rapid Update Cycle (RUC) model Used in HYCOM ocean model Builds on work by RUC group (Stan Benjamin), Rainer Bleck, non-ALE flavors of CSU group (Dave Randall), Henry Juang (EMC) and others... Applicable down to 1-km non-hydrostatic scale by using larger-scale 3-d isentropic variation as part of FIM target coordinate definition
47
NOAA Global Modeling Workshop 12-13 January 2006NOAA/ESRL "Hybrid" means different things to different people: - linear combination of 2 or more conventional coordinates (examples: sigma, z+rho, z+rho+sigma) - ALE (Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian) coordinate ALE maximizes size of isopycnic subdomain (isentropic subdomain for atmospheric model) - From Rainer Bleck HYCOM/ocean model talk
