Estimating and Correcting Global Weather Model Error
The purpose of the present study is to explore the feasibility of estimating and correcting systematic model errors using a simple and efficient procedure, inspired by papers by Leith as well as DelSole and Hou, that could be applied operationally, and to compare the impact of correcting the model integration with statistical corrections performed a posteriori. An elementary data assimilation s...
متن کاملConvex error growth patterns in a global weather model.
We investigate the error growth, that is, the growth in the distance E between two typical solutions of a weather model. Typically E grows until it reaches a saturation value E(s). We find two distinct broad log-linear regimes, one for E below 2% of E(s) and the other for E above. In each, log (E/E(s)) grows as if satisfying a linear differential equation. When plotting d log(E)/dt vs log(E), t...
متن کاملModel error in weather forecasting
Operational forecasting is hampered both by the rapid divergence of nearby initial conditions and by error in the underlying model. Interest in chaos has fuelled much work on the first of these two issues; this paper focuses on the second. A new approach to quantifying state-dependent model error, the local model drift, is derived and deployed both in examples and in operational numerical weath...
متن کاملModel error in weather and climate forecasting
We review various interpretations of the phrase “model error”, choosing to focus here on how to quantify and minimise the cumulative effect of model “imperfections” that either have not been eliminated because of incomplete observations/understanding or cannot be eliminated because they are intrinsic to the model’s structure. We will not provide a recipe for eliminating these imperfections, but...
متن کاملGlobal cost of correcting vision impairment from uncorrected refractive error.
OBJECTIVE To estimate the global cost of establishing and operating the educational and refractive care facilities required to provide care to all individuals who currently have vision impairment resulting from uncorrected refractive error (URE). METHODS The global cost of correcting URE was estimated using data on the population, the prevalence of URE and the number of existing refractive ca...
