WRF-NMM is suitable for use in a broad range of applications across scales ranging from meters to thousands of kilometers, including: real time NWP, forecast research, parameterization research, coupled-model applications and teaching. </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:abstract> <gmd:purpose> <gco:CharacterString> The North American Mesoscale Forecast System (NAM) is one of the primary vehicles by which NCEP's Environmental Modeling Center provides mesoscale guidance to public and private sector meteorologists. It runs 4 times daily at 00Z, 06Z, 12Z and 18Z. This model produces forecasts up to 84 hours in advance. This data source contains forecasts for Alaska at a 45 km resolution. Forecasts for this area at a higher resolution are available. </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:purpose> <gmd:status> <gmd:MD_ProgressCode codeList="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/resources/Codelist/gmxCodelists.xml#MD_ProgressCode" codeListValue="operational"> operational </gmd:MD_ProgressCode> </gmd:status> <gmd:pointOfContact> <gmd:CI_ResponsibleParty> <gmd:organisationName> <gco:CharacterString> DOC/NOAA/NWS/NCEP/Environmental Modeling Center (EMC) </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:organisationName> <gmd:positionName> <gco:CharacterString> Mesoscale Modeling Branch, Branch Chief </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:positionName> <gmd:contactInfo> <gmd:CI_Contact> <gmd:address> <gmd:CI_Address> <gmd:deliveryPoint> <gco:CharacterString> NOAA Center for Weather and Climate Prediction, 5830 University Research Court, W/NP22 </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:deliveryPoint> <gmd:city> <gco:CharacterString> College Park </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:city> <gmd:administrativeArea> <gco:CharacterString> MD </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:administrativeArea> <gmd:postalCode> <gco:CharacterString> 20740 </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:postalCode> <gmd:country> <gco:CharacterString> USA </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:country> <gmd:electronicMailAddress> <gco:CharacterString> ncep.list.emc.nam-feedback@lstsrv.ncep.noaa.gov </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:electronicMailAddress> </gmd:CI_Address> </gmd:address> </gmd:CI_Contact> </gmd:contactInfo> <gmd:role> <gmd:CI_RoleCode codeList="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/resources/Codelist/gmxCodelists.xml#CI_RoleCode" codeListValue="pointOfContact"> pointOfContact </gmd:CI_RoleCode> </gmd:role> </gmd:CI_ResponsibleParty> </gmd:pointOfContact> <gmd:graphicOverview> <gmd:MD_BrowseGraphic> <gmd:fileName> <gco:CharacterString> None </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:fileName> </gmd:MD_BrowseGraphic> </gmd:graphicOverview> <gmd:resourceFormat> <gmd:MD_Format> <gmd:name> <gco:CharacterString> application/x-netcdf </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:name> <gmd:version> <gco:CharacterString> 4 </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:version> </gmd:MD_Format> </gmd:resourceFormat> <gmd:descriptiveKeywords xlink:href="https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/7b00e402-5197-4936-ac7d-43d243c57f6d" xlink:title="GCMD Science"/> <gmd:descriptiveKeywords xlink:href="https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/147c7349-d929-42c6-abc8-301ddf4364df" xlink:title="NASA/GCMD Providers"/> <gmd:descriptiveKeywords xlink:href="https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/80f7b28d-cc8a-46f0-a458-905a9bb6839c" xlink:title="Project Keywords"/> <gmd:descriptiveKeywords xlink:href="https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/d9f8f70b-255d-483a-bd02-ac0416255c4f" xlink:title="Instrument Keywords"/> <gmd:descriptiveKeywords xlink:href="https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/76890cfd-1f65-464d-9560-e69fd5e1cb57" xlink:title="Platform Keywords"/> <gmd:descriptiveKeywords xlink:href="https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/4debd54f-05c3-417d-ba2c-fa10713d8be2" xlink:title="GCMD Location"/> <gmd:descriptiveKeywords xlink:href="https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/fed25ab3-4f9a-40c6-999b-c5d26c910a50" xlink:title="CF Standard Names"/> <gmd:descriptiveKeywords xlink:href="https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/docucomp/13286b2b-6c42-4068-a09d-eb2db55799d5" xlink:title="Uncontrolled"/> <gmd:resourceConstraints> <gmd:MD_SecurityConstraints> <gmd:classification> <gmd:MD_ClassificationCode codeList="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/resources/Codelist/gmxCodelists.xml#MD_ClassificationCode" codeListValue="unclassified"> unclassified </gmd:MD_ClassificationCode> </gmd:classification> </gmd:MD_SecurityConstraints> </gmd:resourceConstraints> <gmd:resourceConstraints> <gmd:MD_LegalConstraints> <gmd:useLimitation> <gco:CharacterString> Disclaimer - While every effort has been made to ensure that these data are accurate and reliable within the limits of the current state of the art, NOAA cannot assume liability for any damages caused by any errors or omissions in the data, nor as a result of the failure of the data to function on a particular system.
