The Unified Model NCAS Unified Model Introduction Part I: Overview of the UM system University of Reading, 13-15 April 2016 The Unified Model • The UM is a numerical modelling system, developed by the UK Met Office, and used for operational weather forecasting and climate prediction. • It is licensed to the UK academic community for research. There are also collaborations between the Met Office and the academic community for research and development (e.g. JWCRP, MOAP). • It is used by forecast centres and climate agencies around the world. 2 Seamless modelling • The same core model is used across spatial and temporal scales: – Weather to climate timescales – Global and regional models – High to low resolution (horizontal and vertical) – Various model heights • It can be used in atmosphere only mode, or coupled to: – UM ocean vn6.6.3 or earlier only (e.g. HadGEM2) – NEMO ocean and CICE sea-ice via OASIS coupler – UKCA chemistry and aerosols – JULES land-surface • It can also be used to perform idealised studies, e.g: – Single Column Model (SCM) – Aquaplanet 3 © Crown copyright Met Office 4 Global & regional NWP system Parallel suite 36 Global 17km 70 levels (N768L70) EURO 4km 70 levels UKV 1.5km 70 levels [Retired NAE 12km 70 levels] © Crown copyright Met Office 5 NWP at the Met Office The UM is just one part of a larger forecast system.

Modelling systems such as HadGEM3 or UKV span different UM versions and have specific “standard jobs” as they develop over time. 24 Submitting a job UM runs are submitted directly from the UMUI. PUMA HPC UMUI scripts (MONSooN/ARCHER) scripts namelists namelists code UM compile, process submit reconfigure & run When a job is processed the UMUI: • Creates the namelists that the UM reads in at runtime. • Generates the scripts used to compile and run the model. When a job is submitted the UMUI: • Starts running the scripts • Copies the namelists and scripts to the HPC • Extracts the code and copies to the HPC 25 Running the UM Three distinct steps (separate batch jobs): • Compilation -> Reconfiguration -> UM atmosphere model run • May also have a Post-processing & archiving step after the run. The compilation is handled by the Flexible Configuration Management (FCM) system which: • manages code components; • creates Makefiles for compilation and loading; • compiles and links the code according to options selected; • creates an executable. The reconfiguration is a stand-alone program which modifies UM atmosphere start files (and ocean files for UM 6.6.3 and earlier). • Compiled with FCM • Runs as a parallel application

The scheme is derived from a 3-D full chemistry transport model (CTM) and tested within the same chemistry model itself, as well as in an independent 5 general circulation model (GCM). The new CH4/H2O scheme is suitable for any global model and here is shown to provide realistic profiles in the 3-D TOMCAT/SLIMCAT CTM and in the ECMWF (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts) GCM.

  • University of Reading Boundary-Layer Type Classification and Pollutant Mixing
    University of Reading Department of Meteorology Boundary-layer type classification and pollutant mixing Natalie Jane Harvey A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2013 Declaration I confirm that this is my own work and the use of all material from other sources has been properly and fully acknowledged. Natalie Harvey Page ii Abstract In the atmospheric boundary layer the vertical distribution of heat, momentum, water and pollutants is controlled by mixing that is turbulent. This complex mixing is param- eterized in weather forecast and climate models. But are the parameterizations imple- mented in these models representative of the real world? For the first time, Doppler lidar and sonic anemometer data are used to objectively classify the observed boundary layer into nine different types based on the Met Office scheme. Examples of these types are decoupled stratocumulus cloud, cumulus capped and stable with no turbulent cloud. This method is applied to three years of data from the Chilbolton Observatory, UK, to create a climatology of boundary-layer type. This climatology exhibits clear seasonal and diurnal cycles with the most common type over the three years being a cloud-free stable boundary layer. The decoupled stratocumulus type and the cumulus cloud under a stratocumulus layer type are diagnosed 10.3% and 1.0% of the period respectively. This new observationally based boundary layer classification is used to evaluate the boundary-layer type diagnosed by the 4 km and 12 km resolution versions of the Met Office Unified Model. The model is found to predict too many decoupled stratocumulus boundary layers by a factor of 1.8, in both the stable and unstable regime.

  • Effects of Stratospheretroposphere Chemistry Coupling on Tropospheric Ozone
    JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 115, D00M04, doi:10.1029/2009JD013515, 2010 Effects of stratosphere‐troposphere chemistry coupling on tropospheric ozone Wenshou Tian,1,2 Martyn P. Chipperfield,2 David S. Stevenson,3 Richard Damoah,3,4 Sandip Dhomse,2 Anu Dudhia,5 Hugh Pumphrey,3 and Peter Bernath6 Received 6 November 2009; revised 23 March 2010; accepted 13 April 2010; published 17 September 2010. [1] A new, computationally efficient coupled stratosphere‐troposphere chemistry‐climate model (S/T‐CCM) has been developed based on three well‐documented components: a64‐level general circulation model from the UK Met Office Unified Model, the tropospheric chemistry transport model (STOCHEM), and the UMSLIMCAT stratospheric chemistry module. This newly developed S/T‐CCM has been evaluated with various observations, and it shows good performance in simulating important chemical species and their interdependence in both the troposphere and stratosphere. The modeled total column ozone agrees well with Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer observations. Modeled ozone profiles in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere are significantly improved compared to runs with the stratospheric chemistry and tropospheric chemistry models alone, and they are in good agreement with Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding satellite ozone profiles. The observed CO tape recorder is also successfully captured by the new CCM, and ozone‐CO correlations are in accordance with Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment observations. However, because of limitations in vertical resolution, intrusion of CO‐rich air in the stratosphere from the mesosphere could not be simulated in the current version of S/T‐CCM. Additionally, the simulated stratosphere‐to‐troposphere ozone flux, which controls upper tropospheric OH and O3 concentrations, is found to be more realistic in the new coupled model compared to STOCHEM.

  • I/O Analysis of Climate Applications
    I/O analysis of climate applications Arne Beer, MN 6489196, Frank Röder, MN 6526113 Introduction About the paper and our goals In this paper we analyze and present the strengths and weaknesses of different data structures required by some carefully picked climate and weather prediction models. Further we investigate the bare minimum of data required by those models. Another important aspect we will elaborate is the pre- and post- processing of data and the precise moment it occurs. In the following sections we will elucidate some models and the process on how to set them up as well as running sample cases. At the end there will be a section about the overall life cycle of data. Getting started With intent of getting an overview about the richness of climate applications and their land, ice, weather and ocean modulation, we took an in-depth look at some models. The main goal was to find a model with proper documentation and a license which allowed us to use it for our research and benchmarking purposes. Most model investigated by us were too old for our objective. In many cases there were practically no documentation, let alone active support or new releases. The next obvious step was to get an good overview of up to date and easy to handle models which are still supported. For this purpose we put a spreadsheet together from which we could choose the most promising ones. We came across some good looking models, but despite a good first impression, most of them are shipped with broken scripts, bad documentation or a hidden provision, which forbids us to use them.

Metview is used extensively both at ECMWF and in the Centre’s Member and Co-operating States. A national meteorological service may for example use it to plot fields produced by the ECMWF model and a regional model, calculate some additional fields such as temperature advection, and plot vertical cross sections. The recent addition of a Python interface to Metview has expanded its range of uses and has made it accessible to more potential users.
