This page contains details of GA7.1+StratTrop suites available.

Remember to always COPY these suites to a new one that you own, rather than checking them out. This will prevent you accidentally over-writing the settings in the original suite.

TS2000 free-running suites

These are year-2000 atmosphere-only timeslice simulations.

UM versions Met Office XC40 Monsoon2 XCS NEXCS ARCHER
UM11.0 u-ay770 u-bb055 u-bb056 u-ba915
UM11.1 u-bd086 Will be produced on request
UM11.2 u-bd036 u-bd683 u-be045
UM11.3
Bit-reprod with UM11.2
u-bg745 u-bg779 u-bg785
UM11.4

u-bk249 u-bl029
  • An example vn11.2 ARCHER suite configured for a 1-day run without archiving and with manual compile is u-be079. A selected set of 3-hourly meaned UKCA diagnostics are also sent to the daily UPK stream.

TS2000 nudged suites

These are year-2000 atmosphere-only timeslice simulations nudged to ERA-Interim reanalysis. Here the nudging files will change with date rather than being a perpetual year, although the forcings are all climatologies.

UM versions Met Office XC40 Monsoon2 XCS NEXCS ARCHER
UM11.0 u-ba749 u-bb202 u-bb210
UM11.1 u-bd267 Will be produced on request
UM11.2 u-bd359 u-bd341 u-bd366
UM11.3 u-bh303

Release notes / Known Issues

All UM versions (vn10.6.1+)

  • Stash items spanning 38:485 to 38:545 i.e. Aerosol surface conc., number conc., load diagnostics: Due to the way STASH is handling and processing these items -when requested using Stash time profiles like TDMPMN, TMONMN, TDAYMN- will be output as exactly 1/3rd of their actual value. Members making use of these items need to scale the values by 3.0.

Testing suites

Converting Y2000 suites to transient

Instructions for converting the above Y2000 (decadal mean forcing) suites to transient can be found here.
