This article by Filip Vana (written in February 2005) explains the new fashion of the spectral horizontal diffusion tuning.
It has been implemented to the model cycle CY29T1. Since that time no
HDIR[x] coefficients are accepted by code. There is also no need any longer
to recompute horizontal (...)

A variational diagnostic analysis tool has been developed for diagnostic purposes. This tool will be the successor of "diagpack" for nowcasting issues.
It is inspired by the concept of diagnostic analysis which has been the central concept for the development of diagpack.
From the technical (...)
This document explains the new projection routines with an emphasis on bugfixes at the level of Cycle 29.t2 to 30.t1. It explains : the new "cadre" for ALADIN files, use of NCADFORM key, in depth description of parameter setup and checks in sufpg1, ...
Both English and French documentions are (...)

This is a provisionnal version on 19 September 2005 : please send any comments to Pierre Bénard (you can use the forum linked to this article).
This paper derives the equations for a moist precipitating atmosphere in mass coordinate. The starting point is the paper by Sylvie Malardel on the (...)
The architecture of ARPEGE/IFS/ALADIN software, which must be executed in real-time, is designed to run on high performance machines, which includes machines with a large number of processors.
The research of performance is base on the Amdal’s law that shows obviously, that the developer should (...)
