UKCA Chemistry and Aerosol Tutorials at vn11.8 using Rose & Cylc
The following tutorials will teach you how to use various aspects of UKCA, and the parts of Rose (the Unified Model's python-based user interface) that are specific to UKCA.
- Please read through the "Things to know before you start" page before continuing
Please work through the UKCA Tutorials below at your own pace. They should take between 8 and 14 hours to complete, but don't worry if you take more or less time than this.
| # | Difficulty | Time to Complete | Topic |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | EASY | Under 30 minutes | Running an existing UKCA Suite |
| 2 | EASY | Under 30 minutes | Exploring Rose |
| 3 | EASY | Under 30 minutes | What is STASH? |
| 4 | HARD | 1-2 hours | Adding new chemical tracers |
| 5 | HARD | 1-2 hours | Adding new emissions |
| 6 | MEDIUM | 30-60 minutes | Adding new chemical reactions |
| 7 | MEDIUM | 30-60 minutes | Adding dry deposition of chemical species |
| 8 | EASY | Under 30 minutes | Adding wet deposition of chemical species |
| 9 | HARD | 1-2 hours | Adding new UKCA chemical diagnostics |
| 10 | HARD | 1-2 hours | Examining Aerosol Impacts |
| 11 | HARD | 1-2 hours | Worked Example: Developing a change for submission to the trunk |
These tutorials are an update and expansion of the tutorials which were at UM8.2, UM8.4, UM10.4, and UM10.9.
This tutorial has been funded by the NERC Advanced Training: Short Courses award scheme and the ACITES Atmospheric Chemistry Modelling Network.
