Numerical Weather Modeling (NWM)

Abstract

The NWM program transitioned High Performance Computing (HPC) System 11 into operations in early FY2022, transitioned legacy weather models to System 11 at the end of FY 2022, which enhanced and expanded the computing capability to begin supporting machine learning models' development. NWM develops and integrates physics and machine learning-based analysis and forecast models to include atmospheric, hydrology, and land characterization. NWM also provides data and products used to issue advisories and warnings for DoD resource protection, as well as DoD and IC mission planning. NWM integrates with the Air Force Weather Weapon System's Weather Data Analysis (WDA) Inc 5 processing centers to analyze and predict weather phenomena.
