During the 2007 meeting in Dubrovnik, at the SRNWP business meeting, a proposal (initiated by Jean-François Geleyn) about the "Expert Teams", was accepted and the SRNWP Expert Teams (ETs) were formed.Here, you can see them, their ToRs and their participants.
The ET scientists produced plans and proposed projects for the 2008-2009 period, but no later such documents exist. Their original (and now entirely outdated) documents still exist and can be seen: ET for assimilation, dynamics, physics, EPS, surface, systems and verification.
Data assimilation and use of observations
Data assimilation methods, algorithmic choices, application of new observation types, OSE and OSSE experiments, ensemble data assimilation.
Diagnostics, validation and verification
a. Data pre-processing, validation and inter-comparison of models
b. Verification Programme.
Dynamics and lateral boundary coupling
High resolution numerics, numerical techniques, new methods for LBC coupling.
Link with applications
Two-way interaction between various downstream applications (hydrology, environment, aviation, oceanography), statistical adaptation
Physical parameterisation (upper air)
Parameterisation schemes, high resolution numerics, PBL-surface interaction
Predictability and EPS
a. Predictability issues, addressing uncertainties in the NWP models, LAMEPS, ensemble data
assimilation
b.EUREPS Programme to be updated
Surface and soil processes (model and data assimilation)
Physiographic data, PBL-surface interaction, modelling and DA techniques for continental surfaces and upper ocean layers
System aspects
a. Data pre- and post-processing, code aspects
b. Interoperability Programme to be submitted to the EUMETNET Council
For the time being the SRNWP Advisory Committee will deal with the issues related to the socio-economic benefits of the NWP models and also considers the client-oriented verification.
The "Terms of references (ToR)" below gives a guideline to the Expert Teams to start their work. The Expert Teams have the right and possibility to comment and amend the ToR below and they are asked to prepare their workplan.
