Verification of National Weather Service Ensemble Streamflow Predictions for Water Supply Forecasting in the Colorado River Basin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Ensemble Streamflow Prediction (ESP) system, developed by the National Weather Service (NWS), uses conceptual hydrologic models and historical data to generate a set, or ensemble, of possible streamflow scenarios ...
Snow Model Verification Using Ensemble Prediction and Operational Benchmarks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Hydrologic model evaluations have traditionally focused on measuring how closely the model can simulate various characteristics of historical observations. Although advancing hydrologic forecasting is an often-stated goal ...
Case Studies of a MODIS-Based Potential Evapotranspiration Input to the Sacramento Soil Moisture Accounting Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: satellite-based potential evapotranspiration (PET) estimate derived from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) observations was tested for input to the spatially lumped and gridded Sacramento Soil Moisture ...
A Preliminary Examination of WRF Ensemble Prediction of Convective Mode Evolution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAccurately simulating convective mode evolution can assist forecasters in the severe weather warning process. A few prior studies have examined the skill of simulating convective modes using single, deterministic ...
Distributed Hydrologic Modeling Using Satellite-Derived Potential Evapotranspiration
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: atellite-derived potential evapotranspiration (PET) estimates computed from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) observations and the Priestley?Taylor formula (M-PET) are evaluated as input to the Hydrology ...
