Numerical weather prediction

Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 2002
Abstract This overview describes a brief history of the numerical weather prediction proposed by L.F. Richardson in 1922. He had a dream of forecasting weather based on time integration of basic equations of fluid mechanics that express the atmospheric circulation.

The quiet revolution of numerical weather prediction

Nature, 2015
Advances in numerical weather prediction represent a quiet revolution because they have resulted from a steady accumulation of scientific knowledge and technological advances over many years that, with only a few exceptions, have not been associated with the aura of fundamental physics breakthroughs.

GPU acceleration of numerical weather prediction

2008 IEEE International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processing, 2008
Weather and climate prediction software has enjoyed the benefits of exponentially increasing processor power for almost 50 years. Even with the advent of large-scale parallelism in weather models, much of the performance increase has come from increasing processor speed rather than increased parallelism. This free ride is nearly over.

Numerical weather prediction

Reviews of Geophysics, 1975
Various numerical models are in use for prediction of the large‐scale motions of the atmosphere for operational or research purposes, and all seem to have comparable skill for several days, as shown by Druyan [1974] in a comparison of the Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) [Somerville et al., 1974] model forecasts with those at the National ...

Numerical weather prediction

2000
Abstract Astounding advances in numerical weather prediction have taken place over the last 40 years. Atmospheric models were rather primitive in the early 1960s and were able to yield modest forecasts at best for one day over a very limited domain at only one to three levels in the atmosphere and for only one or two variables.

Application of Parallel Processing to Numerical Weather Prediction

Journal of the ACM, 1967
The purpose of this study is to illustrate the application of a parallel network processing computing system to an important class of problems in hydrodynamics. The computing system selected for this study is a prototype of the SOLOMON parallel processing system (cited as SOLOMON II) which was developed at the Westinghouse Defense and Space Center ...
