GFSv16.3.15 - Update to obsproc.v1.2

KateFriedman-NOAA commented 5 months ago

What new functionality do you need?

Update to obsproc.v1.2 when it is introduced in operations. Also make related GSI change to turn GMI back on.

What are the requirements for the new functionality?

[x] Update obsproc_ver in version files in dev/gfs.v16
[ ] Update obsproc_ver in version files in develop
[ ] Install obsproc.v1.2 on R&D machines
[ ] Uncomment GMI line scripts/exglobal_atmos_analysis.sh (commented out in https://github.com/NOAA-EMC/global-workflow/pull/1404).
[ ] Update ops version in RTD

Acceptance Criteria

New version works everywhere.

Update from @ilianagenkova - implementation date next Wednesday May 8th during the 12z cycle:

Hello users,

Following a successful PPT in early April, and should there be no CWD or anything else unexpected, 
NCO is targeting to implement obsporc v1.2  on May 8th 12z .

This update will:
- add high-vertical resolution radiosonde profiles (up to 255 pressure levels) to the global and RAP prepbufr files;
- add high-vertical resolution radiosonde profiles (full profiles) to the newly established global and RAP *uprair* bufr dump files;
- add high-spatial and temporal resolution hurricane tailored winds for the HAFS model in the *satwhr* buff dump files;
- increase the amount of msonet observations across all regional models 

Expect larger prepbufr  and msonet bufr dump files and allow for longer run times reading/processing these.

Also, more obs data will be shared via NOMADS -
  - GFS gfs.tCCz.TYPE.tm00.bufr_d

Where TYPE is BUFR formatted files *ahicsr*, *crisf4*, *crsfdb*, *gsrasr*, *gsrcsr*, *omi*, *ompslp*, *ompsn8*, *ompst8*, *satwhr*, *sevasr*, *uprair*

  - GDAS gdas.tCCz.TYPE.tm00.bufr_d

Where TYPE is BUFR formatted files *ahicsr*, *avcsam*, *avcspm*, *crsfdb*, *gsrasr*, *gsrcsr*, *omi*, *ompslp*, *ompsn8*, *ompst8*, *satwhr*, *sevasr*, *uprair*

 - RAP rap.tCCz.TYPE.tm00.bufr_d

Where TYPE is BUFR formatted files *gsrasr*, *gsrcsr*, and *uprair*

See the [SCN ](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qRUw5xO4zKJSedNMNp555tpjfw1h87XOK2-wdTEHlP8/edit)for details.

Feel free to forward this to anyone who might benefit from the heads up.

Thanks, 
iliana

From May 3rd RFC memo:

RFC 12604 - On WCOSS2, implement the OBSPROC v1.2.0 upgrade along
with downstream models' updates. This upgrade will:

● Expand the global observation datasets (gfs and gdas) with high vertical
resolution radiosonde profiles, and high spatial and temporal resolution
satellite winds tailored for hurricane events
● Expand the rap observation dataset with high vertical resolution
radiosonde profiles. It will also increase the volume of msonet
observations across all regional networks and expand the capacity of
SDMEDIT list entries per observation type.
● Several internal BUFR-lib related arrays were increased to accommodate
increasing obs data volumes.
● A number of obs data sets were added to NOMADS (see SCN).
● Turn off the obsproc_air_now job since the EPA AirNow data was
stopped.

To be implemented on May 8, 1100Z to 1800Z and May 9, 1400Z to 1800Z.

SPA update: Due to ECE/CWD, the OBSPROC upgrade is postponed to May 09 2024 12z .

Update from @ilianagenkova and NCO: Due to Enhanced Caution remaining in effect until 1200Z Fri May 10 2024 SPAs will implement obsproc v1.2 on Monday 5/13 12z.
