Abstract
This paper documents AUS2200, a community-driven, high-resolution limited-area modelling project for Australia based on the Met Office Unified Model (UM) coupled to the Joint UK Land Environment Simulator to represent the land surface. Developed through a national partnership involving the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes (CLEX), Bureau of Meteorology (BoM), National Computational Infrastructure (NCI) and Australian Earth System Simulator National Research Infrastructure (ACCESS-NRI), AUS2200 marks a significant advancement in limited-area modelling efforts in the Australian university community. AUS2200 features a convection-permitting configuration with..
