2 NH effects in dynamics
NH effects are distinguished by the ampli-tude of vertical accelerationWhen horizontal resolution becomes large enough:
∆x, ∆y < 10 km
then vertical acceleration should not be omit-ted:

How large it must be for NHquality emerging?Can ε be treated as the char-acteristic of NH nature of dy-namics at all?

In the atmosphere of Earth, twophenomena are recognized as gen-erators of NH behaviour:
Convection (thermally forced)
Orographic flow

Thus,
(1) In convective events, NH effects become
actual at horizontal resolutions ∆x ∼ 100 m
(at resolutions which do resolve vertical con-
vection )
(2) In orographic flow case, departure from
HS state (in vertical momentum equation) is
very small yet it does causes NH quality of
flow from resolutions ∆x < 5 - 10 km

The NH effect manifests itself in differentbehaviour of buoyancy waves in comparisonwith HS case.
Vertical acceleration finiteness causes signif-icant changes in group speed direction andmagnitude of waves.
The wave amplitude changes,the wave pattern becomes rather different,the wave drag modifies essentially.
All this happens at ε ∼ 10−3already.

3 SRNWP Test Site
http://www.mmm.ucar.edu/projects/srnwp tests/
This test site was proposed at the SRNWP (Short Range Nu-
merical Weather Prediction) workshop in Bad Orb, Germany,
27-29 October 2003, and it was then developed by:
W. Skamarock (NCAR), B. Doyle (ONR) , P. Clark and N.
Wood (MetOffice).

4 Main principles
Main principles as formulated at SRNWP site:
(1) Tests should be easy to configure
(2) Tests should be easy to evaluate
(3) Tests should require only minimal physics(dissipation, very simple moist physics)
(4) Tests should test something in the solver
(5) Test set should be a minimal set

The SRNWP test-site includes:
(1) Inertia gravity waves in a periodic channel
(2) Density Current
(3) Resting atmosphere
(4) Potential flow over a mountain
(5) 2-D mountain waves (hydrostatic and nonhydrostatic, lin-ear and nonlinear)
(6) 3-D mountain waves
(7) Schar test case
(8) Squall lines and/or supercells?

5 Terrain Forced Flow Test-caseThe differences in buoyancy wave properties is themost outstanding feature which makes NH dynam-ics different from HS primitive equation model dy-namics, For NH testing, orographic flows are mostsalient at 1 - 10 km resolutions

The buoyancy wave properties of the model are not easy to observe andmeasure in real conditions.

The main idea of (NH) model testing based onterrain forced flow modelling
For given orography, wind and temperature distri-bution,
in linear flow regime, the numerical model is rununtil (quasi) stationary state is achieved.
16
![Page 18: SSS06, Sestroretsk, June 12 - 17, 2006netfam.fmi.fi/SSS06/presentations/Room_nhef.pdf1 Presentation Subject NH effects in dynamics Test sites Testing principles Orographic test cases](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042417/5f3333b0edc1314e4658dc4b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Results are compared to exact linear stationary so-lution with the same orography, wind and temper-ature.
Coincidence is looked for macro-parameters of thewave pattern like the amplitude, phase, wave-length.
No line-to-line coincidence is looked for. (WHY?)
The linear stationary reference model must be aNH scheme of guaranteed (high) quality (exact so-lution)

Fortes/Strong points:
Overall debugging facilityIn addition to the main purpose (NHquality testing):– Check and testing of specific details of numeri-cal scheme (spectral smoothing, decentering, time-(Asselin-)averaging, boundary relaxation scheme )
– Testing of spatial discretization and time step sizeeffects onto model accuracy)

Weaknesses:
– Transient flow regimes are not acces-sible
– Nonlinear effects are not accessible(Not as serious deficiency, however, as it may be expected ten-
tatively ...)

Linear ”exact”test solutionsInitially (including the SRNWP test-site), the analytical so-lution of NH buoyancy-wave equation with constant T and Uwas applied.
For recent tests of NH HIRLAM, a special numerical solutionalgorithm of the linear semi-implicit semi-Lagrangian (option-ally Eulerian) stationary equations with arbitrary numericalresolution has been developed (Zirk and Room).

Conclusions to orographic test-ing1. The orographic (terrain forced) flow in linearregime is the best test case of NH effect at reso-lutions 1 - 10 km
2. Semi-elastic SISL HIRLAM resolves NH dynam-ics properly.
3. In general, numerical NH models have still enoughdevelopment space in fine detail capturing

8 Convection tests
Modeling of cold bubble sinking was carried out byJan Masek, Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute,using 2D NH and HS models (both derived fromNH ALADIN)Though this experiment is not a full-scale test case(due to lack of ’exact’ reference solution), it presentsa good example of differenct NH/HS convection han-dling and can be used for model intercomparisons.

Conclusions to convection tests1. At shorter scales, ∆x < 1 km, convection mod-elling becomes more appropriate for NH effect study.
2.The NH effect in dynamics is really strong at hor-izontal resolutions ∼ 100 m.
3. High-presision reference solutions are still wantedin convection modeling experiments.
4. In general, numerical NH models have still enoughdevelopment space in fine detail presentation.
