Introduction 

The High resolution Regional Model (HRM) is a flexible tool for Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP). The Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD) provides this comprehensive package to meteorological services, universities, and research institutes world-wide.

Operational HRM-Kenya is based on GME data.

Model domain (Mesh size: 0.125° ~ 14 km):

startlon = 26.0

endlon = 51.0

startlat = -12.0

endlat = 12.0

ie = 201

je = 193

pollon = -180.0

pollat = 90.0

nrbmap = 316


 

Characteristics of computer for the HRM:
Linux PC server. 2 Processors 1GHZ,1GB RAM

NB: The use of the HRM system requires a written contract between the DWD and the institution in question. There are three different contracts, one for scientific usage, one for official duty purposes, and finally one for commercial applications. Another contract is necessary for the operational usage of GME data as initial and lateral boundary conditions for HRM forecasts.
