NAEFS v6.0.0 Implementation Instructions: 1. Checkout NAEFS repository https://github.com/NOAA-EMC/NAEFS/tree/develop 2. Set up the package copy this directory to your file location (2) Build the executables of NAEFS Go to the sorc sub-directory, following the instructions in README.build file, all the executables will be generated and saved in the exec sub-directory. 3. Start the test run Check and modify (if it is necessary) job cards in sub-directory ecf/naefs 4. Resources requirements (1) Compute resource information: Computer: Current need around 10 nodes; future will need more nodes Please check the ecf sub-directory, the computer resource requirement can be found in each jobs' ecf file (2) Disk space Main change happen for new directories pgrb2ap5_bc, pgrb2ap5_an, pgrb2ap5_wt - new pgrb2ap5_bc: 22GB, 0.5d bias corrected forecasts (3 hourly for day 8) - new pgrb2ap5_an: 10GB, 0.5d anomaly forecast - new pgrb2ap5_wt: 500mb, 0.5d weight for each member - prcp_gb2: 1GB, 0.5d bias corrected prcp - new ndgd_prcp_gb2: 1GB, 2.5km bias corrected and downscaled prcp for CONUS 5.
