“Jumpiness” of the ECMWF and Met Office EPS Control and Ensemble-Mean Forecasts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This work investigates the inconsistency between forecasts issued at different times but valid for the same time, and shows that ensemble-mean forecasts are less inconsistent than corresponding control forecasts. The ...
Effects of Observation Errors on the Statistics for Ensemble Spread and Reliability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effects of observation errors on rank histograms and reliability diagrams are investigated using a perfect model approach. The three-variable Lorenz-63 model was used to simulate an idealized ensemble prediction system ...
An Assessment of the ECMWF Extreme Forecast Index for Water Vapor Transport during Boreal Winter
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractEarly awareness of extreme precipitation can provide the time necessary to make adequate event preparations. At the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), one tool that condenses the forecast ...
The Economic Value Of Ensemble-Based Weather Forecasts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The potential economic benefit associated with the use of an ensemble of forecasts versus anequivalent or higher-resolution control forecast is discussed. Neither forecast systems are post-processed,except a simple calibration ...
Intercomparison of Global Model Precipitation Forecast Skill in 2010/11 Using the SEEPS Score
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: recipitation forecasts from five global numerical weather prediction (NWP) models are verified against rain gauge observations using the new stable equitable error in probability space (SEEPS) score. It is based on a 3 ? ...
Jumpiness in Ensemble Forecasts of Atlantic Tropical Cyclone Tracks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Building a Multimodel Flood Prediction System with the TIGGE Archive
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n the last decade operational probabilistic ensemble flood forecasts have become common in supporting decision-making processes leading to risk reduction. Ensemble forecasts can assess uncertainty, but they are limited to ...
Forecast Errors and Uncertainties in Atmospheric Rivers
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A key aim of observational campaigns is to sample atmosphere–ocean phenomena to improve understanding of these phenomena, and in turn, numerical weather prediction. In early 2018 and 2019, the Atmospheric River Reconnaissance ...
