# ufs-weather-model

This is the UFS weather model source code

# Where to find information

Start at the [wiki](https://github.com/ufs-community/ufs-weather-model/wiki) which has quick start instructions.

[User's reference guide](http://ufs-weather-model.readthedocs.io/) is hosted on read the docs.

# What files are what

The top level directory structure groups source code and input files as follow:

| File/directory | Purpose |
| -------------- | ------- |
| ```LICENSE.md``` | A copy of the GNU Lesser General Public License, Version 3. |
| ```README.md``` | This file with basic pointers to more information. |
| ```AQM/``` | Contains air quality modeling component |
| ```CMEPS-interface/``` | Contains CMEPS mediator |
| ```CICE-interface/``` | Contains CICE sea-ice model component including CICE6 and Icepack |
| ```CDEPS-interface/``` | Contains CDEPS data components, including data-atmosphere (DATM) and data-ocean (DOCN) model components|
| ```FV3/``` | Contains FV3 atmosphere model component including FV3 dynamical core, dynamics to physics driver, physics and IO. |
| ```GOCART/``` | Contains GOCART aerosol model component |
| ```HYCOM-interface/``` | Contains HYCOM ocean model component |
| ```MOM6-interface/``` | Contains MOM6 ocean model component |
| ```NOAHMP-interface/``` | Contains Noah-MP land model component |
| ```WW3/``` | Contains community wave modeling framework WW3 |
| ```stochastic_physics/``` | Contains the stochastic physics source code |
| ```cmake/``` | Contains compile option files on various platforms. |
| ```modulefiles/``` | Contains module files on various platforms. |
| ```tests/``` | Regression and unit testing framework scripts. |
| ```build.sh``` | Script to build the model executable (also used by `tests/`) |

E.g. use of `build.sh` to build the coupled model with `FV3_GFS_v15p2` as the CCPP suite.
```
$> CMAKE_FLAGS="-DAPP=S2S" CCPP_SUITES="FV3_GFS_v15p2" ./build.sh
```
The build system is regularly tested with [Tier-1 and Tier-2 platforms](
https://github.com/ufs-community/ufs-weather-model/wiki/Regression-Test-Policy-for-Weather-Model-Platforms-and-Compilers).
Configurations for other platforms that are available with UFS should be used with the understanding that they are not regularly
tested and users will have to adapt those to make it work.
