DTC Structure and WRF Code
DTC Architecture
WRF Code
The DTC WRF code is developed at three distinct levels.
Contributed code is the most informal class of code in the
WRF system. The main requirement for inclusion in this category
is
that the code is written in the WRF framework and meets minimum
WRF coding standards. Maintained by the author, these codes
will be placed in this category after evaluation by the DTC or
as
part of the community model system.
The Reference code system is a repository of carefully selected,
tested codes that have the potential of elevation to operational
status. These codes are maintained by the DTC, with appropriate
documentation and support to users.
Operational Code Systems are fully hardened, fully tested, and
current operational NWP systems. These are maintained by the
operational centers for operational purposes.
