All,
Developmental Testbed Center (DTC) is working with the Earth Prediction Innovation Center (EPIC) to establish community requirements for a Hierarchical System Development (HSD) . This effort is focused on accelerating the rate of improving numerical prediction across scales using the Unified Forecast System (UFS). The requirements will be captured in a white paper. We would like to invite you to provide your input via this survey. The goal of the survey is to identify:
-
What gaps you feel exist in the UFS HSD research-to-operations framework?
-
What ideas you have to improve collaborative efforts between process-level study groups and model development (e.g. UFS Applications)?
-
What areas of HSD used in the community should be highlighted in DTC’s white paper?
The survey has 13 questions with a mix of multiple choice and short answers. It will take 10-15 minutes to complete and is open until Friday, April 28th, 2023. Please take a few minutes out of your busy schedule to provide us with this valuable feedback on how you would like to engage with the UFS.
Tracy Hertneky and Xia Sun, on behalf of the DTC
