The operational suite contains two cycles named 00 and 12.
Each cycle contains three parts:
o Analysis
- fetch the observations
- run the analysis model
- post-process the data
o Forecast
- Prepare the input data
- Run the forecast model. The forecast model outputs its results every 6 hours up to 24 hours for cycle 00 and up to 240 hours for cycle 12.
o Archive
- Save the analysis results.
- Save the forecasts results as they become available.
What do:
- Write a suite definition for this suite.
- How should the ecf script‘s be organised?
