Description:
An operational WRF modeling system was developed to provide forecasts for daily operations, special experimental support, and emergency response components of the NOAA Air Resources Laboratory (ARL) Special Operations and Research Division (SORD) missions. It serves as a coupling platform of modeling and measurements for the understanding of planetary boundary layer (PBL) dynamics, with attention to particular aspects of atmospheric fluid flow that impact the transport and dispersion of pollutants. In addition, the system is a testbed for ARL research projects such as general PBL parameterizations, direct mesonet data inclusion and other data assimilation approaches, and desert climate studies.
