RACM Project Update: ISU Atmospheric Modeling Component: Part 1 Justin Glisan Iowa State University Department of Geological and Atmospheric Sciences Justin Glisan, Iowa State University
Outline • Update since San Diego • Extended SHEBA Year run • Full and embedded domains • Time series/Plots • Production runs • Experimental Design • Replication (spatial and temporal) • Ensembles • Future Work/PhD Research Justin Glisan, Iowa State University
Update since San Diego • Production WRF runs by WRF 3.1 • Incorporates various parameterizations designed for the Arctic (Mark Seefeldt’s SD presentation) • Extended SHEBA year run (five years) • Full domain analysis • Sub-domain analysis for large watersheds and central Arctic Ocean • Elements of experimental design dealing with statistical significance and replication
Pan-Arctic WRF Setup Using physics parameterizations tested at the University of Colorado Justin Glisan, Iowa State University
PAW • WRF (ARW dynamic core) version 3.1 • Pan-Arctic Domain • Colorado Physics Parameterizations • Forcing data sets: • NCEP/DOE R2 • NSIDC Bootstrap Fractional Sea Ice Justin Glisan, Iowa State University
PAW Model Runs Extended SHEBA Run 1979 2001 Justin Glisan, Iowa State University
Present Day Climatology • In an effort to study the past 30 years, three distinct five-year periods selected • Literature and statistical review shows an ensemble containing from four to six members reasonable • Seven year spin-up (two years for soil, etc.) • Final five years used • Members created 24 hours apart • Experimental design…
Extended SHEBA Year Test Case • September 1997 – September 2001 (+) • Initial run extended into February 1999 • Will have ensembles • Results compared against: • NCEP/DOE R2 • ECMWF ERA40 • SHEBA Observations* Justin Glisan, Iowa State University
