Road widths unrealistic in urban LCZ Table #1954
Comments
@cenlinhe Can you take a look at this report? Thanks. |
These road width values do seem to be too large. I am not sure the history of these values. @andreazonato Do you know where these default values come from? Do you have recommended (more realistic) values to replace them? I did not find any road width data in Stewart and Oke's LCZ paper. |
I discussed this with Alberto Martilli (expert on WRF-urban modeling). He does not know where these default values come from, but he suggested to make them equivalent to those used in the multilayer scheme (see STREET PARAMETER section towards the end of the file). Same thing for ROOF_WIDTH and ZR values. He will provide me with an updated URBPARM_LCZ.TBL file and I will create a PR for it once I have the updated file. |
I submitted this PR (#1969) based on Alberto Martilli's suggestion to solve this issue. |
@bfkg Can you see if proposed change fixes your issue? |
TYPE: enhancement KEYWORDS: urban, parameter SOURCE: Reported by Benjamin Fersch (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany), fixed by Alberto Martilli (CIEMAT, Spain) DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: Current urban LCZ parameter table includes some unreasonable values for urban morphology (e.g., too large road width) and thermal properties (e.g., CAPR, CAPB, CAPG, AKSR, AKPB, AKPG). The LCZ classification is mainly a classification based on morphology, rather than thermal properties, so it should use the same thermal properties for different LCZs unless users have specific information from other local data sources. Solution: Use morphological parameters correspond to mid-range values of Stewart and Oke 2012, and all the LCZ classes have the same thermal properties. ISSUE: [For use when this PR closes an issue.](#1954) LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: URBPARM_LCZ.TBL TESTS CONDUCTED: 1. The mods fix the problem. 2. It passed regression tests. RELEASE NOTE: Update urban LCZ parameter table (URBPARM_LCZ.TBL) with more reasonable values.
@bfkg Thanks for your response. |

For km_opt=5 it was 3 times momentum diffusion instead of twice. Solution: xkmv and xkmh passed into diffusion routines for tke calls instead of xkhv and xkhh. ISSUE: For use when this PR closes an issue. Fixes #2026 LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: modified: dyn_em/module_diffusion_em.F TESTS CONDUCTED: 1. LES case was run with shalconv sounding to verify the change. 2. The Jenkins tests are all passing.

Solution: 1. retuning of mixing lengths and stability function for momentum - mostly just limit changes. 2. check for mf transfer of heat out of the lowest layer was modified 3. removed rho. LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: phys/module_bl_mynn.F TESTS CONDUCTED: 1. Tested in RRFSv1. 2. The Jenkins tests are all passing. This commit contains the final tuning of the MYNN for RRFSv1, and part of the update for 4.6 (together with PR-1938 and 1996). commit 30e547cd447660743a9f0cfe06923b2cc92fe08f Author: weiwangncar <[email protected]> Date: Thu Apr 11 21:59:16 2024 -0600 Add PXLSM change from PR-2023 (#2035) Pleim-Xiu LSM MODIS LCZ Compatibility & Surface Evaporation Update TYPE: bug fix & physics refinement KEYWORDS: MODIS, LCZ, P-X LSM, Latent Heat Flux SOURCE: Robert Gilliam & Jon Pleim, US EPA DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: User indicated that the P-X LSM errored for MODIS LCZ 61 NUM_LAND_CAT configuration. Currently, we account for evaporation from transpiration, soil in both vegetated and non-veg parts, and wet leaves. But we only account for the latent heat effects on Tg from transpiration and evaporation from non-veg soil. This fix adds latent heat effects on Tg from soil in vegetated parts and from wet leaves. Fix for rare case where GRDFLX goes NaN because of a divide by zero based on a soil parameter when a water cell turns to sea ice. Solution: Logic checks in module_physics_init.F and module_sf_pxlsm.F were adjusted for 61 category inputs. P-X LSM data table, module_sf_pxlsm_data.F was updated for MODIS 61 categories. Default for LCZ 51-61 was set to MODIS urban class. We also added updates for the evaporation from vegetation and wet canopy. ISSUE: Fixes: #1965 LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: M phys/module_physics_init.F M phys/module_sf_pxlsm.F M phys/module_sf_pxlsm_data.F TESTS CONDUCTED: - Tested 61 class LCZ with PX LSM for a 1 day simulation with updated codes. Ran base MODIS 21 class scheme with same code before and after LCZ update. The results were identical after a 24 hour simulation. This confirms updates do not impact other MODIS settings in the P-X LSM. The MODIS 21 was by nature not identical to the MODIS 61, but similar enough and differences follow underlying differences in MODIS datasets. - The Jenkins tests are all passing. RELEASE NOTE: Pleim-Xiu LSM is now compatible with 61 category MODIS LCZ landuse dataset. A mode of latent heat effects on Tg from vegetated parts and from wet leaves is added to Pleim-Xiu LSM. commit 46dc7401bff616ae7740bd46be144abc28d57244 Author: tanyasmirnova <[email protected]> Date: Wed Apr 10 19:47:07 2024 -0600 Update RUC LSM to the latest version used in version 1 of RRFS. (#2028) TYPE: bug fix, enhancement KEYWORDS: snow model, irrigation, conductivities SOURCE: Tanya Smirnova, NOAA/GSL DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: 1. Changes to the snow model. Added options to compute thermal snow conductivity and snow cover fraction: isncond_opt = 1 or 2 (1 is default, 2 is recommended to use) isncov_opt = 1, 2 or 3 (1 is default, 2 is recommended to use for more accurate SCF) 2. Changes to irrigation scheme, use real-time vegetation fraction as an indicator of crops maturity. 3. Changes to soil diffusional and hydraulic conductivities. LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: M phys/module_sf_ruclsm.F TESTS CONDUCTED: - Tested in RRFS - The Jenkins tests are all passing. RELEASE NOTE: This PR modifies the RUC LSM to add options to the snow model, use real-time vegetation fraction as an indicator for irrigation scheme, and change soil diffusional and hydraulic conductivities. commit f630b3d7d12bb703161d0605f85ae3974a03ce24 Author: Anthony Islas <[email protected]> Date: Tue Apr 2 14:56:23 2024 -0700 Fix issue with generalized compiler version output using the wrong flags (#2030) Fix issue with generalized compiler version output using the wrong flags TYPE: bug fix KEYWORDS: compile, version SOURCE: internal DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: A generalized compile version check was proposed in #1987. This logic was implemented in #1942 but the originating logic contains a bug where the `-V` and `--version` flag commands' output is flipped. Solution: Use `-V` in the appropriate spot when `$status` is zero for the `-V` check, and respectively for the `--version` check. LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: M compile TESTS CONDUCTED: 1. With previous bad logic the compile log output shows a compiler error as the wrong flag is used to output version info. With the fix, the correct output now shows in the compile log. commit 0b68af0d7f397ccee9a6402530a6f4927bf8a65f Author: weiwangncar <[email protected]> Date: Wed Mar 27 16:03:46 2024 -0600 correct the logic to use specific humidity or mixing ratio directly (#2031) TYPE: bug fix KEYWORDS: real, use_sh_qv SOURCE: internal DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: The logic to control whether specific humidity or mixing ratio is used instead of RH is wrong (PR-1959) when either SH or Qv is available. It is corrected in this PR. LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: M dyn_em/module_initialize_real.F TESTS CONDUCTED: Tested before and after this change. The data without SH is not affected, and the data with SH (EC model level data) is now used directly if use_sh_qv is set to true. The Jenkins tests are all passing. commit 9c09ef9ed4617a7daf0fd03d3556bca7f6b7e604 Author: weiwangncar <[email protected]> Date: Tue Mar 26 16:11:54 2024 -0600 remove unneeded depends (#2029) TYPE: bug fix, clean up KEYWORDS: dependencies, unused SOURCE: internal DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: Some dependency is declared twice, some are no longer needed. Solution: Remove un-used dependencies. Complimentary to PR-1950. LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: M main/depend.common TESTS CONDUCTED: 1. Tested on Derecho with 6 proc to compile 2. The Jenkins tests are all passing. commit 9e265af51ddb41cd1993d55289e13a5bcb3ae0c4 Author: Soren Rasmussen <[email protected]> Date: Fri Mar 15 14:10:23 2024 -0700 Hydro CMake and Updates (#2009) TYPE: new feature, bug fixes, enhancement KEYWORDS: CMake, Build System, Hydro SOURCE: Soren Rasmussen and Ryan Cabell, NCAR DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: - Build Systems: - CMake build system added and renaming .F and .f90 files to .F90 so they automatically get preprocessed and the editor recognizes them as free-form - added compiler info to all netcdf output files - Alma support added - Cray compiler fixes: - Removes comma after write statement and changes A*-B*C statements to A*(-B)*C - Use assumed shape / volatile arrays with ext libs - Replace timestep multiple check with mod operator - Update CMake with proper MPI and PGI/NVHPC support - General: - whitespace cleanup - MPI - Optimized inefficient MPI routines. Converted MPP_LAND p2p MPI to collectives, Remove unneeded mpp_land_sync() calls - Routing changes - Add scrape of outer edge of domain so water doesn't pile up - Remove 'FATAL ERROR' from SMCRT depletion message - Add to retro IO option (NWM) - routing bugfix: removed CHANN_K from debug print statement. The variable is unitialized and can change values every time executable is run. - bugfix: unallocated variables - Nudging - Update nudging_io to NF90 API - Since NetCDF subroutines have been converted to nf90 we can remove the 'include netcdf.inc' statements - Config - config debug: fixes in read_crocus_namelist subroutine TESTS CONDUCTED: 1.

01228e7dfc0c4c257a7511e028088eddf3dfb388 Author: joshi994 <[email protected]> Date: Fri Mar 15 13:54:11 2024 -0400 The net longwave flux absorbed by the building wall, RB2, in module_sf_urban.F is underestimating the value by a factor of emissivty of the wall, EPSG, as it is multiplied twice. I corrected the equation in the aforementioned module. (#2016) TYPE: Bug fix KEYWORDS: Longwave flux, radiation/energy balance, Surface temperature, Urban climate, SLUCM SOURCE: Parag Joshi (Brookhaven National Lab), Katia Lamer (Brookhaven National Lab) DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: The net long wave fluxes absorbed by the building walls is being underestimated due to multiplication of the emissivity twice in the equation. The command/lines that evaluate RB2 in the module_sf_urban.F (Lines 1300 and 1419 of WRF version-4.5.2) reflect the net long wave fluxes absorbed by building walls. Solution: The code has been corrected by referring to the equation A9 of in the article, Kusaka & Kimora 2004, Journal of Applied Meteorology. ISSUE: For use when this PR closes an issue. Fixes #2011 LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: M module_sf_urban.F TESTS CONDUCTED: 1. Tests were conducted by the LSM group at NCAR/RAL. 2. It passed Jenkins tests. RELEASE NOTE: Correcting the net long wave fluxes for application in modeling urban climate using Single Layer Urban Canopy Model (SLUCM). It slightly improved 2-m temperature in urban area. commit 95eb02c21e0493e1311208a7fe5f1db8b78e9244 Author: weiwangncar <[email protected]> Date: Wed Feb 28 14:43:02 2024 -0700 Add prints for parameters used in auto_levels_opt = 2 in real.exe (#2015) TYPE: enhancement KEYWORDS: auto_levels_opt, dzbot, dzstretch SOURCE: internal DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: Lack of information in the standard output when running real.exe using auto_levels_opt = 2.

New separate flags for scalar/chem/tracer (#2010) TYPE: bug fix KEYWORDS: mp_zero_out SOURCE: Ted Mansell (NOAA) DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: This fixes the side-effect of mp_zero_out being applied not only to the moist array, but also to the scalar/chem/tracer arrays using the same threshold. This behavior would be unexpected from the documentation (readme) which indicated that only mixing ratios were affected. This PR restricts mp_zero_out to the moist array and adds a separate mp_zero_out_all flag to apply it to all the arrays in the off chance that somebody needs to replicate the previous behavior.

RELEASE NOTE: The behavior of the mp_zero_out flag was changed affect only the 'moist' array, whereas previously it also caused the scalar/chem/tracer arrays to also be set to zero for values below threshold. Now there is a separate flag (mp_zero_out_all) if one wishes to reproduce the old behavior. commit e2da0f64d8149588d058e97524f905d455389036 Author: Anthony Islas <[email protected]> Date: Wed Feb 28 13:51:21 2024 -0700 CMake build of diffwrf binaries (#2013) TYPE: enhancement KEYWORDS: cmake, diffwrf SOURCE: internal DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: New CMake build did not create binaries for io_* `diffwrf` Solution: Slight restructure of certain targets to allow for easy creation of the diffwrf executables. Since previously all `diffwrf` binaries were named the same, to house them int the same `install/bin/` location they have been prefix with the type of io or shorthand of that option ( io_int -> `diffwrf_int`, io_netcdf -> `diffwrf_nc`, io_netcdfpar -> `diffwrf_ncpar` ).

No prototypes were used. See PR#1823. And, this pr is kind of an extension to PR#1823 addressing the same issue for building WRF-chem. Solution: Add missing prototypes; rearrange function order to support new Intel oneAPI compiler RELEASE NOTE: This PR fixed missing and/or wrong prototypes in C code to support successful compilation of WRF-Chem when using the Intel oneAPI compiler ifx/icx. commit d66b39985c5cfaa9e550ae4de48b849b66e031e7 Author: Anthony Islas <[email protected]> Date: Fri Feb 16 09:51:54 2024 -0700 CMake Build (#1896) TYPE: new feature KEYWORDS: CMake, build, make SOURCE: internal DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: The current WRF build system is fragile with many pitfalls making it difficult for users to build & add to it without perpetuating existing problems. Many options exist across various layers of files, languages, and option control-flow. Solution: *This requires CMake version 3.20 or newer* A redesign of the build system from the ground up, maintaining the interfacing feel and knowledge accumulated in `arch/configure.defaults`. Condense option selection and control to single locations and as best as possible reduce the complexity of this control. This will be a work in progress as gaps are identified in reproducing the full functionality of the makefile build system. Currently only `em_real` and `em_ideal` have limited supported Brief how to use: As this is a work in progress, the original `configure` and `compile` scripts have been left as-is. Alongside them are now `configure_new` and `compile_new` which walk a user through a slightly similar experience of configuring & compiling WRF. A simple usage example would be: ```bash # Ensure you have cmake 3.20+ and configuration environment set up ./configure_new # Follow prompts to select configuration ./compile_new [-j N] ``` Notable differences are : * Submodule code must be checked out beforehand and is not checked out during the compile process * Stanzas presented to a user are only those for which the compiler exists in the current environment * `!!` warnings appear for subconfigurations (MPI) that would not be supported in the current environment * DM/SM selection is now done after selecting a base configuration rather than an individual configuration # within a family of compilers * Compilation via `compile_new` does not take target to build as an argument - parallel `-j N` jobs still supported * Users do not need to set `NETCDF` or `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` variables * Base binaries do not have `.exe` extension, but symlinks are provided * Binaries, test setups, and everything else generated from compilation is copy-placed (not softlinked) to a separate location - default is `./install`. This means the equivalent `test/em_real/wrf.exe` is now at `install/test/em_real/wrf.exe` LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: A CMakeLists.txt A arch/configure_reader.py A chem/CMakeLists.txt A cleanCMake.sh A cmake/c_preproc.cmake A cmake/confcheck.cmake A cmake/gitinfo.cmake A cmake/m4_preproc.cmake A cmake/modules/FindJasper.cmake A cmake/modules/FindRPC.cmake A cmake/modules/FindnetCDF-Fortran.cmake A cmake/modules/FindnetCDF.cmake A cmake/modules/FindpnetCDF.cmake A cmake/printOption.cmake A cmake/target_copy.cmake A cmake/template/WRFConfig.cmake.in A cmake/template/arch_config.cmake A cmake/template/commit_decl.cmake A cmake/wrf_case_setup.cmake A cmake/wrf_get_version.cmake A compile_new A confcheck/CMakeLists.txt A configure_new A dyn_em/CMakeLists.txt A external/CMakeLists.txt A external/RSL_LITE/CMakeLists.txt A external/atm_ocn/CMakeLists.txt A external/esmf_time_f90/CMakeLists.txt A external/fftpack/fftpack5/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_adios2/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_esmf/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_grib1/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_grib1/MEL_grib1/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_grib1/WGRIB/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_grib1/grib1_util/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_grib2/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_grib2/bacio-1.3/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_grib2/g2lib/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_grib2/g2lib/utest/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_grib_share/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_int/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_netcdf/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_netcdfpar/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_phdf5/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_pio/CMakeLists.txt A external/io_pnetcdf/CMakeLists.txt A external/ioapi_share/CMakeLists.txt A frame/CMakeLists.txt A inc/CMakeLists.txt A main/CMakeLists.txt A phys/CMakeLists.txt A share/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_b_wave/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_convrad/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_fire/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_grav2d_x/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_heldsuarez/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_hill2d_x/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_les/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_quarter_ss/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_real/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_scm_xy/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_seabreeze2d_x/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_squall2d_x/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_squall2d_y/CMakeLists.txt A test/em_tropical_cyclone/CMakeLists.txt A tools/CMakeLists.txt A tools/CodeBase/CMakeLists.txt A doc/README.cmake_build M tools/fseek_test.c M README M arch/configure.defaults - Modified file include an adjustment to a compile test to allow the test to be conducted in an out-of-source build manner as prescribed by CMake.

Currently, the chemistry initialization always calls for module_aerosol_soa_vbs routine, leaving the module_aerosol_soa_vbs_HET and corresponding data constants unitialized. As a result, aerosol concentrations are set to 0 after the first time integration (10**-16). To verify the bug fix, initialize WRF-Chem with non-trivial IC and save the next time step into nc. Check that values are non-trivial (e.g., so4aj, soila). Solution: Differentiate between module_aerosol_soa_vbs and module_aerosol_soa_vbs_het initialization routines LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: M Registry/registry.chem M chem/chemics_init.F M chem/module_aerosols_soa_vbs_het.F TESTS CONDUCTED: - The Jenkins tests are all passing.

SOURCE: RenChuanhua and Huangxin, Nanjing University. DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: The traditional monthly emission inventory cannot characterize the variation of ammonia emission intensity under different meteorological conditions, which leads to the simulation bias of secondary inorganic aerosol (such as nitrate and sulfate). Solution: The meteorological dependent dynamic emission factor (empirical function) is added to the emission file, which can calculate the ammonia emission rate according to hourly meteorological conditions and soil conditions. LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: list of changed files: Registry/Registry.EM_COMMON Registry/registry.chem chem/chem_driver.F chem/emissions_driver.F TESTS CONDUCTED: We compiled and ran the revised model to simulate 2019 East China region, and it can run smoothly, and the running speed has not decreased significantly. Compared with the traditional static emission inventory, the NH3 and nitrate concentrations obtained by dynamic model are obviously optimized. The code has passed the regression tests. RELEASE NOTE: This PR adds the meteorological dependent dynamic emission factor (empirical function) to the emission file, which may help correct simulation bias of secondary inorganic aerosol (such as nitrate and sulfate).

In this new scheme, the fire heat is conserved while distributed in the atmosphere. Additionally, the current smoke tracer release scheme in WRF-Fire was over-simplified. Solution: We introduce a Truncated Gaussian fire heat and smoke distribution scheme in WRF-Fire to overcome the mentioned limitation of fire heat distribution and have a higher fidelity model to release fire smoke tracers. Several namelist options are added in order for the user to choose the desired release scheme and adjust the parameter.

I have seen 2-3% improvement in performance for CONUS 2.5 km benchmark (GCC). WRF outputs have been compared before and after the patch; the output models are bit-for-bit matching for CONUS 12km and CONUS 2.5 km models; the diff are generated using diffwrf.py script. 2. It passed regression tests. 3. NCAR also tested the change, and they produce bit-for-bit results. RELEASE NOTE: This PR allows memory access in the inner loop along the faster dimension of the data arrays in some routines; and in other modules breaks down some larger loops with conditional statement to allow partial vectorization.

This reveals itself as a cold bias at high latitudes in RRFS and the TKE is too often hitting the lower limit. 3. cosmetic issue with cloud fractions in unsaturated grid cells with nonzero mixing ratios 4. uninitialized scalars in unused subroutine planned for deletion Solutions (1-1 mapping with problems listed above): 1. added the missing rho to the mass flux components in the u and v tridiagonal vectors. 2. reverted the blending of the mixing lengths to same as HRRRv4 and tweaked some parameters to slightly increase the diffusion, mostly isolated to very stable conditions. 3. relaxed some limits and combined the ice and snow cloud fraction check together. 4. replaced uninitialized variables with variables that are initialized (changed names). Still plan to remove this subroutine after the downdrafts are fully revised (very close).

RELEASE NOTE: This PR moves the call to shalwater_init from module_sf_sfclayrev.F to module_physics_init.F. commit 9b08bf28b56698df2aeda154afab2d7843a89c50 Author: Anthony Islas <[email protected]> Date: Wed Jan 31 14:56:15 2024 -0700 Add missing module_wind_mav.o dep to module_physics_init.o (#1999) TYPE: bug KEYWORDS: make, dependency SOURCE: internal DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: PR #1944 adds module_wind_mav to module_physics_init, but does not update the main/depend.common file to add the dependency during compilation Solution: Add module_wind_mav.o as a dependency to module_physics_init.o in the main/depend.common file ISSUE: Fixes comment noted in #1944 LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: M main/depend.common TESTS CONDUCTED: - Local compilation in single job mode -j 1 should work now. - It passed regression tests. commit 240c6f3faee93aff9eaf9995e9cb2f185f8f273c Author: Anthony Islas <[email protected]> Date: Thu Jan 25 01:02:32 2024 +0000 Rectify many of the missing dependencies (#1950) TYPE: bug fix KEYWORDS: make, dependencies SOURCE: internal DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: Occasionally and non-deterministically the WRF make compilation will fail due to erroneous depend rules or missing rules which result in essentially either (1) race conditions relying on modules to just happen to be compiled in time for use (2) when rules are followed, subsequent dependencies are missing and compilation fails or (3) complete recompilation of certain files. For instance, if one takes a look at a build log, one could see that module_mp_thompson.o is compiled twice - once as module_mp_thompson.o and again as ../phys/module_mp_thompson.o. This is not or rarely observed in the current regression tests because compilation is done three times as a stop-gap to avoid this issue. Solution: Add missing dependencies and fix malformed dependencies. LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: M main/depend.common TESTS CONDUCTED: - Cannot be observed in current regression tests as they are designed to obscure this very issue. Can be observed with many single individual compilations. - It passed the regression tests. RELEASE NOTE: Fix missing or erroneous dependencies in make rules. commit 0c4ed5f7006d4754c44a3a47e43b195c116e491e Author: weiwangncar <[email protected]> Date: Wed Jan 24 12:17:45 2024 -0700 add salinity effect in sfclay and sfclayrev (#1963) TYPE: enhancement KEYWORDS: salinity effect, saturation vapor pressure, ocean SOURCE: internal DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: The salinity effect of ocean is not considered when computing saturation vapor pressure. Solution: Add the effect in the MM5 and revised MM5 surface layer schemes. The 0.98 factor (set in the code as SALINITY_FACTOR) is an approximation for salinity of 34 part per thousands, and applied for saturation specific humidity. Here the approximation is applied to saturation mixing ratio. The lakemask field is used to exclude this effect from inland lakes. LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: M phys/module_sf_sfclay.F M phys/module_sf_sfclayrev.F M phys/module_surface_driver.F TESTS CONDUCTED: - Tested in many tropical cyclone cases. - The Jenkins tests are all passing. RELEASE NOTE: Add salinity effect in MM5 and revised MM5 surface layer schemes. The effect is lower the saturation vapor pressure over ocean by about 2%. commit 3a504662659672d96ee45867e903fc3a3ad02955 Author: weiwangncar <[email protected]> Date: Wed Jan 24 11:33:45 2024 -0700 Use Qv or specific humidity in interpolation if they are available (#1959) TYPE: enhancement KEYWORDS: Qv, specific humidity, vertical interpolation SOURCE: internal DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: In current real program, if either water mixing ratio (Qv) or specific humidity (SH) is available, it first converts it to RH, perform vertical interpolation using RH, and then compute Qv for the model input. Assuming Qv and SH are coming from other model's native levels, which tends to be plenty and generally true, it should not be necessary to go through this Qv (SH) to RH, and RH to Qv steps. Solution: Use the flag_qv and flag_sh to avoid using interpolated RH (even though RH is still computed and vertically interpolated). If flag_sh is 1, SH is converted to Qv or mixing ratio. Then Qv is interpolated vertically. A namelist, use_sh_qv, is added for user to choose to do so if SH or Qv data is available. A test case shows that there is some differences in the final Qv in the lower levels (a bit less Qv), particularly near terrain slopes. LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: M Registry/Registry.EM_COMMON M dyn_em/module_initialize_real.F M run/README.namelist TESTS CONDUCTED: - It doesn't affect existing option if RH is the only incoming variable. Tested the code, and it gives bit-for-bit results before and after this change. - The Jenkins tests are all passing. RELEASE NOTE: If water mixing ratio or specific humidity is available in the metgrid output, they can be used directly in vertical interpolation. Previously these fields are first converted to RH, interpolated vertically, and the water vapor mixing ratio is computed at model levels. Now one can use the new namelist, use_sh_qv = T to choose to use SH or Qv data directly. commit c50bf2aa962f8df4b96e54c7449d6c543a06bb7d Author: YulongMa <[email protected]> Date: Thu Jan 25 02:31:05 2024 +0800 Add three new wind farm parameterizations and their ensembles (#1944) TYPE: new feature KEYWORDS: wind farm parameterization, windfarm wake option SOURCE: Cristina Archer (UDEL), Yulong Ma(UDEL;GWA-MWF) and Ahmad Vasel-Be-Hagh(Tennessee Technological University) DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Three new wind farm parameterizations and their ensembles have been added. The key innovation of these parameterizations is their ability to directly account for the individual and overlapping sub-grid wakes of wind turbines within a wind farm. This feature was absent in the Fitch parameterization previously used in WRF. Additionally, the three parameterizations differ in their representation of wakes (e.g., top-hat or Gaussian) and their superposition methods (e.g., sum of squared deficits, squared velocities, or empirical fittings). The new namelist option windfarm_wake_model can be used to select one of the three wind farm parameterizations, the windfarm_overlap_method namelist option can be used to select the desired wake superposition method. We recommend to use the new wind farm parameterizations, particularly for coarse resolution, high turbine density, and wind directions aligned with the turbine columns.

However, this causes model crash if the LCZ capability is activated for urban pixel, because the LCZ land type index (51-61) is out of the MODIS or USGS land type number. This code is in module_sf_noahmpdrv.F file. Solution: Add an if-statement to assign default natural vegetation type for urban pixels with large land type index to represent rural portion of the urban pixel. This is related to a reported Noah-MP issue (NCAR/noahmp#104). LIST OF MODIFIED FILES: phys/noahmp/drivers/wrf/module_sf_noahmpdrv.F TESTS CONDUCTED: - The mods fix the problem - It passed the regression tests. RELEASE NOTE: This PR fixed a bug in Noah-MP for uninitialized leaf area index when LCZ is used. commit 9f8ecd7964a0ef77ab1861309c6d7c79ec6df249 Author: Ted Mansell <[email protected]> Date: Tue Jan 23 12:36:49 2024 -0600 Make sure that USENETCDFPAR is not undefined (#1988) TYPE: bug fix KEYWORDS: make SOURCE: Ted Mansell (NOAA/NSSL) DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES: Problem: Logic failure in top level Makefile with some versions of make (don't remember which) if USENETCDFPAR is undefined Solution: Making sure that at USENETCDFPAR is set to either 0 or 1 in the configure script fixes the issue.

The LCZ classification is mainly a classification based on morphology, rather than thermal properties, so it should use the same thermal properties for different LCZs unless users have specific information from other local data sources. Solution: Use morphological parameters correspond to mid-range values of Stewart and Oke 2012, and all the LCZ classes have the same thermal properties.

This leads to occasional model crashes and unrealistic surface temperatures of > 350 K.
I suggest to provide more realistic default values with respect to the WUDAPT method, or even multiple exemplary files for certain cities or typical for countries.
