Description of the upgrade
This version includes the following changes:
- A revised shortwave radiation scheme with variable effective radius of liquid cloud water;
- Retuning of the land surface (TESSEL) parametrization to reduce winter/spring warm biases in low-level temperatures;
- Improved physics for the oceanic wave model;
- Improved wind-gust post-processing;
- The activation of new data streams in the assimilation: water-vapour radiances from Meteosat-7, SBUV and GOME ozone data, and European wind profilers;
- A bug in the convective momentum transfer was also fixed;
