Hurricane Weather Research and Forecasting (HWRF) Model: 2017 Scientific Documentation

The Hurricane Weather Research and Forecast (HWRF) system has been in operation at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) since 2007. The HWRF system was developed jointly by NCEP’s Environmental Modeling Center (EMC) and NOAA’s Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) and Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML), and has received numerous contributions from the research community, notably from the University of Rhode Island (URI). The current release is Version 3.9a. The purpose of this document is to describe the scientific aspects of the HWRF model. This includes the initialization, ocean coupling, physics schemes, moving nests, GFDL tracker, and idealized simulation.
