Numerical Weather Prediction Models
JMA operates NWP models to meet various kinds of requirements on weather forecasting. The suite of the NWP models covers a wide temporal range of forecast periods from a few hours to two seasons providing a seamless sequence of products for the public. The Global Spectral Model (GSM) produces 84-hour forecast four times a day (00, 06, 12, 18 UTC) to support the official short-range forecasting ...
متن کاملWind-tunnel Prediction of Wind Power Production in Complex Terrain
An atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnel was used to survey the variation in local wind conditions over a region of the Altamont Pass, California, containing two wind farms. Meteorological data combined with the wind tunnel results were used to predict the power output of the wind farms every half hour over a oneyear period from July 2001 to June 2002. It was observed that the power production...
متن کاملNumerical Prediction of the Wind Flow over Real Hilly Terrain
In the present paper, a numerical prediction of the wind flow in a neutrally-stratified atmosphere over real hilly terrain is presented. For the solutions of the NavierStokes equations which are the governing equations of a microscale atmospheric flow, a numerical model based on the finite-volume formulation in a boundary-fitted coordinate system and the SIMPLEC pressure-correction algorithm is...
متن کاملForecasting wave height probabilities with numerical weather prediction models
Operational weather forecasts now allow two week probabilistic forecasts of wave height. This paper discusses methods for generating such forecasts from numerical model output from the European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasting Ensemble Prediction System. The ECMWF system produces Monte Carlo style forecasts of wave statistics out to a lead time of 10 days. This ensemble of forecasts ...
متن کاملMesoscale Numerical Weather Prediction
Mesoscale models, with grid resolution higher than synoptic and global models, and with advanced physical parameterizations, have been an important tool for meteorological research over the past twenty years. The research applications of mesoscale models, mostly through case studies or model sensitivity experiments in the 1980s, provided us with important physical insights into mesoscale weathe...
