We describe Global Atmosphere 3.0 (GA3.0): a configuration of the Met
Office Unified Model (MetUM) developed for use across climate research
and weather prediction activities. GA3.0 has been formulated by
converging the development paths of the Met Office's weather and
climate global atmospheric model components such that wherever
possible, atmospheric processes are modelled or parametrized
seamlessly across spatial resolutions and timescales. This unified
development process will provide the Met Office and its collaborators
with regular releases of a configuration that has been evaluated, and
can hence be applied, over a variety of modelling régimes. We also
describe Global Land 3.0 (GL3.0): a configuration of the JULES
community land surface model developed for use with GA3.0.
This paper provides a comprehensive technical and scientific
description of the GA3.0 and GL3.0 (and related GA3.1 and GL3.1)
configurations and presents the results of some initial evaluations of
their performance in various applications. It is to be the first in
a series of papers describing each subsequent Global Atmosphere
release; this will provide a single source of reference for
established users and developers as well as researchers requiring
access to a current, but trusted, global MetUM setup. |
