Early Delivery System gains from:
- using 00 and 12UTC data earlier in window of 12h 4D-Var
- using slightly more data in 12h 4D-Var
Early Delivery System loses from
- using less data in 6h 4D-Var

Timetable for resolution changes
• Mid June: First operational testing
• End June: First technical test datasets for selected operational suites available in MARS
• July-September: Operational e-suite
‑ Meteorological test datasets for all operational suites available in MARS
‑ Parallel test dissemination for selected dates
• End September: Implementation
• December: increase in run-length for medium-range from 10 to 15 days, including VAREPS
• Spring 2006: linking MOFC to VAREPS

Technical impact on users
• Field sizes‑ Model output (SH and GG) -> x 2.5
‑ Lat/Lon -> x 4
‑ Extra model levels -> x 1.5
• Dissemination‑ Problem with GG/AUTOMATIC
‑ Choosing of nearest “new” model level
‑ Nearest GRID point coordinates for Weather Parameter requests will
change. Member States have to choose new GRID point coordinates or
rely on interpolation.
‑ Line capacity
‑ Production schedule should stay the same
• MS jobs‑ Check new disk space, memory, CPU, line bandwidth requirements

23
Technical impact on users (cont.)
• MS projects‑ Use test data sets to run “e-suites” and decide on new
configuration
‑ Review resource requirements (disk space, memory, CPU, line bandwidth)
• EMOSLIB 281‑ New Gaussian definitions
‑ New automatic truncation
‑ Will become default version
‑ MARS and Metview_new have been relinked
‑ MS graphics applications (Metview and MAGICS) need to be relinked
