Applying a Divisive Clustering Algorithm to a Large Ensemble for Medium-Range Forecasting at the Weather Prediction Center
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his article explores the potential advantages of using a clustering approach to distill information contained within a large ensemble of forecasts in the medium-range time frame. A divisive clustering algorithm based on ...
An Objective Climatology, Classification Scheme, and Assessment of Sensible Weather Impacts for Appalachian Cold-Air Damming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The geostrophic adjustment process for a rotating, stratified atmosphere in the presence of an orographic barrier may be manifest as a phenomenon known as ?cold-air damming? (CAD). The degree of blocking by an orographic ...
Precipitation and Temperature Forecast Performance at the Weather Prediction Center
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he role of the human forecaster in improving upon the accuracy of numerical weather prediction is explored using multiyear verification of human-generated short-range precipitation forecasts and medium-range maximum ...
