A synoptic-climatology approach to increase the skill of numerical weather predictions over Iran
Simplifications used in regional climate models decrease the accuracy of the regional climate models. To overcome this deficiency, usually a statistical technique of MOS is used to improve the skill of gridded outputs of the Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. In this paper, an experimental synoptic-climatology based method has been used to calibrate, and decrease amount of errors in GFS...
متن کاملWatershed Reanalysis Towards a National Cyberinfrastructure for Model-Data Integration
Reanalysis or retrospective analysis is the process of re-analyzing and assimilating climate and weather observations with the current modeling context. Reanalysis is an objective, quantitative method of synthesizing all sources of information (historical and real-time observations) within a unified framework. In this context, we propose a prototype for automated and virtualized web services so...
متن کاملImpact of bias correction to reanalysis products on simulations of North American soil moisture and hydrological fluxes
[1] Simulating land surface hydrological states and fluxes requires a comprehensive set of atmospheric forcing data at consistent temporal and spatial scales. At the continental-toglobal scale, such data are not available except in weather reanalysis products. Unfortunately, reanalysis products are often biased due to errors in the host weather forecast model. This paper explores whether the er...
متن کاملJ4.10 Operational Rainfall and Flow Forecasting for the Panama Canal Watershed
In 1998 and as part of a science cooperation and technology transfer effort, the Hydrologic Research Center (HRC) and collaborators designed and implemented at the Panama Canal Authority (PCA) a prototype forecasting system for the real time rainfall forecasting over a number of small sub-catchments of the 3,200-sqkm mountainous Panama Canal Watershed in Panama (Figure 1). The system (called PA...
متن کاملUsing Enstrophy-Based Diagnostics in an Ensemble for Two Blocking Events
Recent research has used enstrophy-based diagnostics to identify the development and dissipation stages of blocking events. These previous studies made use of reanalysis data sets in the calculations of the enstrophy-based diagnostics, such as the NCEP-NCAR reanalysis (2.5× 2.5) of geopotential height and horizontal winds. However, none of these studies has explored the use of the enstrophy-bas...
