| Zusammenfassung |
| SURFEX is a new externalized land and ocean surface platform that describes
the surface fluxes and the evolution of four types of surfaces: nature, town,
inland water and ocean. It is mostly based on pre-existing, well-validated
scientific models that are continuously improved. The motivation for the
building of SURFEX is to use strictly identical scientific models in a high
range of applications in order to mutualise the research and development
efforts. SURFEX can be run in offline mode (0-D or 2-D runs) or in coupled
mode (from mesoscale models to numerical weather prediction and climate
models). An assimilation mode is included for numerical weather prediction and
monitoring. In addition to momentum, heat and water fluxes, SURFEX is able to
simulate fluxes of carbon dioxide, chemical species, continental aerosols,
sea salt and snow particles. The main principles of the organisation of the
surface are described first. Then, a survey is made of the scientific module
(including the coupling strategy). Finally, the main applications of the code
are summarised. The validation work undertaken shows that replacing the
pre-existing surface models by SURFEX in these applications is usually
associated with improved skill, as the numerous scientific developments
contained in this community code are used to good advantage. |
