Meteorological evaluation of the OpenIFS outputs is demonstrated here on case studies. Two weather events have been chosen to show the OpenIFS model capabilities and to provide reference cases for the users. Several model experiments were carried out to test the effect of starting date and forecast length, initial condition as well as spatial resolution to the forecast quality. The model outputs are visualized and evaluated using Metview.
After introduction of the weather eventsselected cases, this page guides the user step by step through running the selected experiments, post-processing the model outputs, downloading the reference data and visualization the outcomes with Metview. The input data and namelists needed for the model runs, the scripts for the MARS retrieves and the Metview macros for visualization are available in the OpenIFS repository and can be downloaded.
