MMDFs for the MetNorway AROME regional forecast model for various Arctic sites

Abstract

Merged model Data Files (MMDFs) were produced with the HARMONIE-AROME (HIRLAM–ALADIN Research on Mesoscale Operational NWP in Euromed–Application of Research to Operations at Mesoscale) model configuration for operational weather forecasting for the European Arctic with the name AROME-Arctic. AROME-Arctic MMDFs are based on the operational forecasts (cy40h.1) and are available for the SOP1 and SOP2 at Sodankylä and Ny-Ålesund. Lateral Boundary Conditions are derived from the ECMWF IFS-HRES. The data archived in the MMDFs are provided hourly for the single model grid-point closest to the site.
