https://codes.wmo.int/wmdr/ApplicationArea/globalNumericalWeatherPrediction |
Global numerical weather prediction (GNWP) |
Global numerical weather prediction (GNWP) covers numerical weather prediction on a global scale, required for weather forecasting for more than a few days ahead. NWP uses mathematical models of the atmosphere and oceans to predict the weather based on current conditions of the atmosphere and oceans. http://www.wmo.int/pages/prog/www/OSY/SOG/SoG-Global-NWP.pdf |

High-resolution numerical weather prediction (HRNWP) |
High-resolution numerical weather prediction (HRNWP) covers forecasting of meteorological events over a limited area with a 1-5 km horizontal resolution, for 1 or 2 days ahead. Its high spatial resolutions allows: (i) to get more realistic descriptions of the surface and of atmospheric phenomena such as clouds and precipitation or boundary layer processes; and (ii) to use denser and more frequent observations than global NWP over the area of interest. http://www.wmo.int/pages/prog/www/OSY/SOG/SoG-HighRes-NWP.pdf |
