I am currently working on a typhoon simulation project using the WRF model and would appreciate some guidance on a few concerns I have.
- Data Selection for Driving the Model: I have identified NCEP's ds083.3 and ds084.1 as potential datasets for driving the model. My question is whether the main difference between these two datasets is that the ds083.3 includes assimilation analysis. For typhoon simulations, is one dataset preferable over the other?
- Sensitivity Analysis for Parameterization Schemes: I plan to conduct a sensitivity analysis on PBL, MP, CU, grid_fdda, and isftcflx parameterization schemes. Could anyone provide feedback on whether my other settings are correct? My current namelist.input file is configured to use the ds083.3 dataset as shown in appendix 1.
- NaN Value Errors with ds083.3 Data: When using the ds083.3 dataset, I encounter NaN value errors when setting the time step to 6 times the outer grid resolution, whereas I didn't face this issue with the ds084.1 dataset for a relatively smaller domain. I suspect this might be due to fewer options being enabled in my previous test( appendix 2). Could anyone provide insight into this? (which can see all my files in this url:crush with 'Domain average of dpsdt, dmudt NAN')
