On this page
This page serves as a portal to education and training resources useful for the OpenIFS models (IFS, Single Column Model, Offline Surface Model). The links here provide information on:
- Case studies with OpenIFS
- Idealized configurations (e.g. shallow-water) with OpenIFS
- OpenIFS user workshop training programmes
- Other ECMWF training resources
OpenIFS case studies
- Convection case studies - looks at case of severe Tornado formation over the USA and diurnal convection over Africa (based on the OpenIFS Stockholm user workshop)
- Lothar storm - a severe storm that hit Europe in 1999 characterized by rapid development. Initial conditions provided for various resolutions and start dates with suggested exercises.
Idealized cases
It is possible to run various idealized configurations. The following articles explain how:
- Shallow-water model - configure OpenIFS as a single level shallow-water model with either idealized or real initial conditions.
- Aqua-planet - configure OpenIFS to run as an 'aqua-planet'.
- Held-Suarez testcase - configure OpenIFS to run this classic dynamical core test.
