A Local Ensemble Kalman Filter for the Ncep Gfs Model
This paper outlines the basic concept and mathematical formulation of the Local Ensemble Kalman Filter (LEKF, Ott et al. 2002 and 2003) data assimilation scheme. Some important properties of the scheme are illustrated by numerical experiments with the Lorenz-96 model. Initial implementations of the LEKF on the National Centers for Environmental Prediction Global Forecast System (NCEP GFS) are d...
متن کاملEnsemble-based observation impact estimates using the NCEP GFS
The impacts of the assimilated observations on the 24 hour forecasts are estimated with the ensemble-based method proposed by Kalnay et al. using the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF). This method estimates the relative impact of observations in data assimilation similarly to the adjoint-based method proposed by Langland and Baker but without using the adjoint model. It is implemented with the Nati...
متن کاملCloud Types Simulated by the NCEP GFS Model
Clouds and their interactions with radiation is recognized by the most recent IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change; 2001) report as the greatest uncertainty in future projections of climate, and, despite the considerable improvement of the physical realism of cloud representation in general circulation models, representation of clouds and their feedbacks is still the weakest componen...
متن کاملForecast skill of the tropical intraseasonal oscillation in the NCEP GFS dynamical extended range forecasts
This study examines the forecast performance of tropical intraseasonal oscillation (ISO) in recent dynamical extended range forecast (DERF) experiments conducted with the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Global Forecasting System (GFS) model. The present study extends earlier work by comparing prediction skill of the northern winter ISO (Madden-Julian Oscillation) between th...
متن کاملSimulation of low clouds in the Southeast Pacific by the NCEP GFS
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics Discussions This discussion paper is/has been under review for the journal Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics (ACP). Please refer to the corresponding final paper in ACP if available. Abstract The NCEP Global Forecast System (GFS) model has an important systematic error shared by many other models: stratocumuli are missed over the subtropical eastern oceans. It ...
