UFS MEDIUM-RANGE WEATHER APPLICATION 1.0

Projected Release Timeline The target dates listed below are subject to change. The UFS weather model does not include a workflow, pre-processing, or post-processing. This model is used in multiple applications, with different workflows. The UFS medium-range weather application includes a workflow specific to that type of forecast, although this first release excludes data assimilation. It relies on the […]

NOAA-NCAR partnership on research and operational infrastructure

UFS requires a substantial amount of infrastructure software as well as scientific code. This infrastructure performs functions such as processing data inputs and outputs, enabling software components to be exchanged and coupled together, and ensuring that a forecast workflow can be reproduced on different computers. In January 2019, NOAA and NCAR signed a Memorandum of […]
