Running the GFS Parallel System Hybrid GSI/EnKF on Zeus NOAA/NWS/NCEP/EMC
This presentation contains… • Overview of Hybrid GDAS structure • Running an experiment on Zeus w/ Hybrid (DEMO) • New variables in configuration file • New model input • Submitting jobs with the Hybrid EnKF • New model output • Suggestions for running experiments with the Hybrid EnKF

Hybrid Var-EnKF • What’s hybrid in the hybridGDAS? • Augment fixed background error with information from ensemble forecasts • Benefits: • Improve forecasts • mid-latitude mass fields • tropical winds • fits to observations • cool season CONUS precipitation • fit to bkg • fit to obs • ens fcst • fit to background • fit to obs

EnKF job steps (start to update) • echk • check file availability • eobs • select observations used in ensemble innovations • eomn • submit and monitor ensemble innovation jobs • eomg01,…, eomg10 • compute ensemble innovations (8 members/job) • eupd • compute ensemble analyses (EnKF update code)
EnKF job steps (re-center to archive) • ecen • recenter ensemble analyses about hires analysis • efmn • submit and monitor ensemble forecast jobs • efcs01,…, efcs10 • run ens fcst (8 members/job) • epos • compute ensemble mean • spectrally smooth ens fcst • earc • save data & cleanup
WARNING!!! • Hybrid GDAS generates a LOT of output • 80 member T254L64 ensemble • 1316 files / cycle • 90.8 Gbytes / cycle
Alternatives • Ask yourself - Do I really need to run hybrid GDAS? • Can I use a lower resolution? • T382 hires, T190 ensemble • T254 hires, T126 ensemble • Can I just run the GFS long forecast? • Use ICs from Hybrid EnKF control runs
GFS Hybrid EnKF Experiment (DEMO) • New variables in configuration file • New model input • Submitting jobs with the Hybrid EnKF • New model output Demo matches Zeus control prhy2s: /NCEPDEV/hpssuser/g01/wx24kh/Zeus/para_gfs/prhy2s
Demo time… Needed files: • Config file & rlist:/scratch2/portfolios/NCEPDEV/global/save/Kate.Howard/TUTORIAL/prhy2s • Input/output in COMROT: /scratch2/portfolios/NCEPDEV/global/noscrub/Kate.Howard/TUTORIAL/prhy2s
Demo time… Experiment prhy2s: • CDATE = 2012072512 • CDUMP = gdas • CSTEP = fcst1 • gfs_cyc = 1 (run only 00z GFS) • DOENKF & DOHYBVAR = YES (Hybrid EnKF DA) • EDATE = 2012072600 • EDUMP = gdas • ESTEP = prep
Configuration File – New Variables • To turn the Hybrid EnKF on: • DOHYBVAR=YES • Tells analysis to use ensemble product • DOENKF=YES • Turns on ensemble process scripts
Initial Conditions in $COMROT Acquire initial condition files and place in $COMROT: • biascr.$CDUMP.$CDATE • satang.$CDUMP.$CDATE • sfcanl.$CDUMP.$CDATE • siganl.$CDUMP.$CDATE • sfcanl_$CDATE_mem$MEM($MEM = member # 1-80) • siganl_$CDATE_mem$MEM Where do I find Hybrid EnKF ICs?
Where to find ICs Places to acquire Hybrid EnKF control ICs for Zeus: • prhy2s - Summer 2012 control (July – September) • HPSS: /NCEPDEV/hpssuser/g01/wx24kh/Zeus/para_gfs/prhy2s • Tutorial input • HPSS: /NCEPDEV/hpssuser/g01/wx24kh/Zeus/TUTORIAL/prhy2s
Submitting the GFS w/ Hybrid EnKF While in $EXPDIR, using the psub script from config file, type the following on the command line: $PSUB $CONFIG $CDATE gdas fcst1 $PSUB $CONFIG $CDATE gdas efmn prep anal angu fcst post arch echk echk vrfy eobs eomn eupd ecen efmn epos eomg## efcs## earc
GFS Output - Dayfiles Text output files containing details of run, as well as error messages for troubleshooting, found in $COMROT Naming convention: $PSLOT$CDATE$CDUMP$CSTEP.dayfile New Hybrid EnKF CSTEPs: * echk = epre
