MyOcean2 First Annual Meeting – Cork /16-17 April 2013
Work Package Main Objectives
MyOcean2 First Annual Meeting – 17-18 April 2013
To ensure and improve the reliable and accurate provision of a regional ocean forecast service on the IBI region
To ensure management of service and products, update on new IBI products (i.e. Re-analysis)
To provide a back-up capability: A nominal system IBI-NOM operated by Puertos del Estado A Back-up system IBI-BUP, operated by Mercator.
The system will include modeling improvements and advances derived from R&D when demonstrated.
A robust Tier 1 R&D activity is planned in order to address specific demands of improvement in the operational system
To contribute to enhance IBI users community

System & Production Evolution
MyOcean2 First Annual Meeting – 17-18 April 2013
Main achievements for V3 are
IBI-V3 solution includes improved river discharge data
A more robust & efficient operational suite:
Some sources of IBI incidents minimized with incorporation of some extra QC procedures
Noticeable upgrade of IBI-MFC Validation capabilities:
Launch of NARVAL (north Atlantic Regional VALidation) Tool

System & Production Evolution
MyOcean2 First Annual Meeting – 17-18 April 2013
Main difficulties encountered
Changes in computational environment in both Production lines:
Significant changes in Production hardware
environments both in NOM (PdE-CESGA for V3) & BUP (MO-MF for V4)
Open issue: Risk for operational V3 & V4 services ?

Results from Test of internal BUP production services:
Slightly difference in final products format (i.e. netcdf file format) has an unexpected impact on the download of mixed IBI (NOM & BUP production origin) data through subsetter service (PdE MisGW) ...

River runoffs of Adour (on the left) and Garonne (on the right). Red line: monthly climatology runoffs used in IBI-V1, blue line daily runoffs used in IBI-V2 and green line daily runoffs which take into account tributaries and used in IBI-V3.
IBI solution upgrades:
IBI-V3 will have a more realistic inputs for river discharge runoff data used. (More details on QuID)
IBI River inputs locations. In green: daily runoffs hindcasts from E-HYPE model (SMHI)In red: daily runoffs obs data from PREVIMER
(FCs from E-HYPE only )

Objectives for V3 accomplished Amelioration axis:
Operational aspects: Reduction of execution times associated to model and computer
changes Increase Robustness, preventing new risks identified before V4 Complete the full B.U. solution
R&D aspects Improvement of engineering procedures to validate and include
R&D tier 1 developments Complete IBI R&D plan as established in PMP
