 # HRLDAS (High Resolution Land Data Assimilation System) Community Model Repository
 
 The High-Resolution Land Data Assimilation System (HRLDAS) is a widely-used open-source offline community framework/driver of land surface models (LSMs). HRLDAS uses a combination of observed and analyzed meterological forcing (precipitation, shortwave and longwave radiation, surface wind, specific humidity, temperature, surface pressure) to drive a LSM to simulate the evolution of land surface states. The system has been developed to leverage the WRF pre-processed input data (e.g., WPS geo_em* file) and conduct computationally-efficient model run to generate more accurate initial land state conditions and/or produce the offline LSM simulations alone for scientific studies.
