ARPEGE/IFS, ALADIN and AROME are spectral models, so this documentation has for purpose to describe the spectral transforms done. The present note has for aim to give a brief summary of the spectral method (how to compute Legendre polynomials, spectral transforms) and to describe parts of the code performing spectral transforms (organigramme).
ARPEGE/IFS, ALADIN ET AROME SONT DES MODELES SPECTRAUX, EN CONSEQUENCE CETTE DOCUMENTATION A POUR BUT DE DECRIRE LES TRANSFORMEES SPECTRALES NECESSAIRES POUR PASSER DE L’ESPACE SPECTRAL VERS L’ESPACE POINT DE GRILLE. ON Y FAIT UN BREF RAPPEL DE LA METHODE SPECTRALE (COMMENT CALCULER LES POLYNOMES DE LEGENDRE ET LES TRANSFORMEES SPECTRALES). ON Y DECRIT LES PARTIES DE CODE FAISANT DES TRANSFORMEES SPECTRALES, AVEC FOURNITURE DE QUELQUES ORGANIGRAMMES.
