  1. Radio-soundings coverage WRF domain 1 (Δx = 30km) WRF domain 2 (Δx = 10km) WRF domain 3 (Δx = 3km) Coverage in radio-soundings observations at 850hPa

  2. WRF domain 3 (~3km) verification No assimilation Assimilation Wind speed between 1050 and 850hPa for the period Oct 1-Dec. 31, 2006 radio-sounding: x-axis, WRF y-axis 3 Wind speed between 1050 and 850hPa for the period Oct 1-Dec. 31, 2006 radio-sounding: x-axis, WRF y-axis 3

  3. WRF domain 3 (~3km) verification No assimilation Assimilation Wind direction between 1050 and 850hPa for the period Oct 1-Dec. 31, 2006: radio-sounding: x-axis, WRF y-axis 3 Wind direction between 1050 and 850hPa for the period Oct 1-Dec. 31, 2006: radio-sounding: x-axis, WRF y-axis 3

  4. WRF domain 3 (~3km) verification No assimilation Assimilation Temperature between 1050 and 850hPa for the period Oct 1-Dec. 31, 2006: radio-sounding: x-axis, WRF y-axis 3 Temperature between 1050 and 850hPa for the period Oct 1-Dec. 31, 2006: radio-sounding: x-axis, WRF y-axis 3

  5. WRF domain 3 (~3km) verification No assimilation Assimilation Humidity between 1050 and 850hPa for the period Oct 1-Dec. 31, 2006: radio-sounding: x-axis, WRF y-axis 3 Humidity between 1050 and 850hPa for the period Oct 1-Dec. 31, 2006: radio-sounding: x-axis, WRF y-axis 3

  6. WRF/WIII coupling • Switch from WW3 version3.14 to version4.18 to keep pace with the latest wave model; • Change the option from FLX0 to FLX2 so that the friction velocity from Tolman and Chalikov is used; • Modify the Gridgen packages so that the fluxes between the mother domain and nested domain can be exchanged, which is needed by the FLX2 options; • Modify the WW3 code so that the roughness length ZNT can be output for coupling with the atmospheric model; • Fix some bugs in WW3 V4.18 so that the output issue of default ZNT value in the nested domain is remedy; • Write a script to conduct runs with the coupled system WRF/WWW for the period Oct-Dec. 2006 with wind & roughness exchange every 20mn to 1hr.
