Introduction
semilagrangian where A is dynamics and P physics dynamical contribution A = B + N is split into a
linear term B and a nonlinear residual N semiimplicit discretization in twotimelevels
but in the real world, we use

Aladin physics
computed before the dynamics and interpolated to the origin point
first order accurate coupling
how to accomplish second order accuracy in coupling it to the semilagrangian dynamics?

Choices
Termonia and Hamdi (2007) − physics computed before or after dynamics− physics and dynamics computed in parallel or
sequential manner− physics tendency coupled to dynamics in different
points on trajectory plenty of remaining constraints
− availability of horizontal derivatives− avoid multiple calls to physics

Accuracy criterion
Integrate the forecast with operational timestep (327.273 sec for Croatian domain, 360 seconds for Czech domain)
Integrate the forecast with much shorter timestep (30 seconds) and compute the difference
the one with smaller difference is more accurate

Before or after dynamics
Coupling of physics computed before dynamics in the final point of trajectory is unstable.
A lagged call to Aladin/Alaro physics package is coded
it runs but ... problems with coupling, DFI, zero accumulated
fluxes, model blows up for some runs with operational
timestep and some other with 30 second timestep.

Conclusions
Averaging physics tendency between origin and final points has a beneficial impact on accuracy
Its effects on stability to be studied. Problems remaining
− better consistency in time and space− test the lagged option− check the surface
Having sequential instead of parallel computations inside the physics package
