New model output parameters are usually introduced with the implementation of new model cycles. Details are provided on the information pages for each cycle .
Additional changes to the forecast products (for example new charts, or new post-processed outputs such as the Extreme Forecast Index) are made concurrently, but can also be made at other times. Recent changes are listed below.
- IFS cycle 47r3, Oct 2021
- IFS cycle 46r1, June 2019. New model output fields include the following:
- IFS cycle 45r1, 5 June 2018.
- IFS cycle 43r1, 22 November 2016. New model output fields for HRES and ENS comprise four cloud and freezing diagnostics (for aviation), and a new direct-beam solar radiation diagnostic. In addition, eight new wave model output fields are provided. Additional information about some of these parameters is available below:
- Simulated satellite data 18 March 2016.
- IFS cycle 41r2, 8 March 2016. New model output fields for HRES and ENS include accumulated freezing rain accumulation, CAPE-shear, and significant wave height of all waves with period larger than 10s.
