Revised Interpolation Statistics for the Canadian Data Assimilation Procedure: Their Derivation and Application
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The first part of this paper presents the results of a study of the structure of the observed residuals, or differences, between radiosonde data and the short-range forecasts that are used as trial fields in an operational ...
Impact of a Revised Analysis Algorithm on an Operational Data Assimilation System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The improvement of analysis and data assimilation techniques can have a large impact, as shown here in the context of the Canadian global and regional data assimilation systems. Both of these systems utilize the same ...
The Canadian Global Data Assimilation System: Description and Evaluation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A global data assimilation system has been in operation at the Canadian Meteorological Centre (CMC) since March 1991 when it replaced the previous hemispheric system. This paper describes the system and presents an evaluation ...
Intercomparison of Variational Data Assimilation and the Ensemble Kalman Filter for Global Deterministic NWP. Part I: Description and Single-Observation Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An intercomparison of the Environment Canada variational and ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) data assimilation systems is presented in the context of global deterministic NWP. In an EnKF experiment having the same spatial ...
Intercomparison of Variational Data Assimilation and the Ensemble Kalman Filter for Global Deterministic NWP. Part II: One-Month Experiments with Real Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An intercomparison of the Environment Canada variational and ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) data assimilation systems is presented in the context of producing global deterministic numerical weather forecasts. Five different ...
Implementation of Deterministic Weather Forecasting Systems Based on Ensemble–Variational Data Assimilation at Environment Canada. Part I: The Global System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: major set of changes was made to the Environment Canada global deterministic prediction system during the fall of 2014, including the replacement of four-dimensional variational data assimilation (4DVar) by four-dimensional ...
The Stratospheric Extension of the Canadian Global Deterministic Medium-Range Weather Forecasting System and Its Impact on Tropospheric Forecasts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: new system that resolves the stratosphere was implemented for operational medium-range weather forecasts at the Canadian Meteorological Centre. The model lid was raised from 10 to 0.1 hPa, parameterization schemes for ...
