A limited area modeling capability has been developed for the FV3 dynamical core. This capability was evaluated for a month-long period against a similarly configured twoway nest driven by a global model. The limited area model is statistically comparable to the two-way nest for the first 24 hours, with minor degradation by 48-60 hours.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
