during the 50s the first operationally useful NWP forecasts were barotropic: in Sweden in 1954 in the US in 1958 in Japan in 1959. Only in 1962 could the US launch the first operational quasi-geostrophic baroclinic model, followed by Britain in 1965. By that time, work was already under way, to introduce more realistic numerical models, based on the primitive equations (PE). Evaluation only.

Increases were also made in the number of vertical levels and the horizontal resolution of the models. 1962: A 3-level baroclinic filtered-equation (geostrophic) model became operational. 1966: A 6-level, hemispheric, primitive equation (PE) model became operational. The first global PE model began operating in 1966 at NMC Washington, with a 300 km grid and six-layer vertical resolution. Evaluation only.

The horizontal resolution in North America is significantly increased. The Nested-Grid Model (NGM) also became operational later. The late 1970s and the 1980s saw the introduction of the use of spectral coordinates and advances in methods of data assimilation and more accurate representation of physical processes in the atmosphere such as the formation of clouds and precipitation.? During the 1990s, models of finer and finer scales were developed.? Evaluation only. Created with Aspose.Slides for .NET 3.5 Client Profile 5.2.0.0.

With ensemble modeling, many forecasts are run with slightly varying initial conditions from different models and an average, or ensemble mean, of the different forecasts is created.?
