About / Our Weather Model
TARL is working toward developing its own atmospheric modeling capabilities as part of its broader research and forecasting program. The work is still in development, with the scientific framework continuing to take shape.
Why Build a Model?
TARL's interest in atmospheric modeling extends beyond simply producing another weather forecast. The long-term goal is to investigate how atmospheric prediction can work alongside the observations, instrumentation, and research being developed throughout the laboratory.
Building this capability internally also provides a framework for testing scientific ideas, investigating atmospheric processes, and developing forecasting methods as TARL's research program grows.
What We're Working Toward
01
Developing the ability to investigate and represent atmospheric processes through a dedicated modeling framework.
02
Exploring how terrain and local environmental structure can be incorporated into future atmospheric prediction work.
03
Allowing the modeling system to evolve alongside TARL's observations, research, and growing scientific capabilities.
The Model
TAPM is TARL's developing atmospheric prediction framework. Its architecture, scientific methods, inputs, and eventual forecasting capabilities are still being established through research and development.
Explore TAPM→TARL's weather-modeling capabilities are still being developed. The final structure and capabilities of the modeling system will be determined through continued scientific development, testing, and validation.
As the system matures, additional information about its architecture, methods, evaluation, and applications will be documented.
TARL / Weather Modeling
TARL's atmospheric modeling program will continue to develop alongside its research, observations, and forecasting capabilities.
