This is basic website made for the lorentz center workshop eWUDAPT: Bringing eScience to Urban Climate Mapping and Modelling

Context

Urban areas are characterized by a clearly different meteorology than rural areas. With the refinement of the resolution of numerical weather prediction models, the consideration of the surface energy balance of urban areas require a specific representation to account for radiative trapping, urban vegetation, anthropogenic heat flux, heat storage …

Requested output

We ask for a NetCdf file which contains:

• surface variables

• profiles of state variables at full levels

• profiles of fluxes on half levels

• profiles of soil parameters

• profiles of forcings as prescribed for this case at model levels

• profiles of the initial state as prescribed for this case …

This is the first usecase
