India, Aug. 21 -- The Government of India issued the following news release:
Numerical weather prediction models have two major components-the dynamics and the physics of the model. The dynamics component handles the resolved scales of atmospheric motion, while the physics component represents sub-grid scale processes. In BharatFS, the dynamics have been modified using a new grid structure called Triangular Cubic Octahedral (TCO). The physics components remain similar to those in its predecessor. All details related to the model development and results have been published in a peer-reviewed research journal. More details about the BharatFS are readily available in the below referred research paper published recently.
