Annex to Deliverable Technical Report D1.2.2: FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions of WRF

Abstract

This Annex report documents the first workshop series on the Weather Research Forecasting model (WRF) held by experts of the Cooling Singapore 1.5 project. The objective of the workshop series was to address technical questions for the next thematic areas: 1. General aspects of WRF, 2. Approach to Anthropogenic Heat modelling in WRF, and 3. Approach to Local Climate Zones modelling in WRF. The Workshop consisted of rounds of Q&A made by each expert. The answer to each question was discussed for 5 – 15 mins and the conclusions were documented. The expected outcome of the workshop is one technical report summarizing the Q&A in a format similar to that of ‘Frequently Asked Questions’. We expect this material to facilitate a common understanding about the integration of WRF in the Cooling Singapore Project.
