USING OF METEOSAT SECOND GENERATION HIGH RESOLUTION VISIBLE DATA FOR THE IMPOVEMENT OF THE RAPID DEVELOPPING THUNDERSTORM PRODUCT Oleksiy Kryvobok Ukrainian HydroMeteorological Institute Kyiv, Ukraine Stephane Senesi Meteo-France, DPREVI/PI Toulouse, France Christophe Morel Meteo-France, DPREVI/PI Toulouse, France

The RDT product is an object – oriented diagnostic which provides support to forecasters for real time analysis and automatic warnings of convection. It is produced by RDT software, which use as input data infrared images of the 10.8 (IR10.8) channel of geostationary satellite. Brightness temperature field measured by satellite is used in RDT product for description of convective objects with relevant properties (size, movement, minimum temperature, cooling rates area extentsion rate). See poster of Frederic Autones.

The spatial resolution of one of the MSG channels, the High Resolution Visible channel (HRVIS), is 1 km at sub-satellite point (against 3 km for the others channels). This should allow the HRVIS channel to describe smaller clouds than the IR10.8 channel and improve an earliness of first detection of convective systems during their growing phase in order to be able to warn and provide information to forecaster when severe weather may occur.

Estimation of fully cloudy pixel reflectance Convective clouds are really optically thick, even if their geometrical size is not so large. R c is simulated by Radiative Transfer Model (RTM) R c of optically thick cloud does not increase with further increase of opticall and geometrical thickness of cloud

Cloudy pixels diagnostic on visible channels Threshold technique for cloudy pixel diagnostic. Threshold technique for cloudy pixel diagnostic. It is relatively easy to adapt thresholds to varying meteorological conditions, viewing geometry and using external data (NWP data, RTM calculation, climatological atlas). It is relatively easy to adapt thresholds to varying meteorological conditions, viewing geometry and using external data (NWP data, RTM calculation, climatological atlas). According to the Wielicki and Parker (1992) the reflectance threshold in visible channels is the most sensitive for low (young convective) clouds identification These thresholds are calculated using RTM depending on different atmospheric states, viewing geometry and different kind of surfaces. Add TOA reflectance a pre-defined margin (to account for noise and variation of surface reflectance).

CONCLUSION CONCLUSION  The study shows that cloud fraction of pixels can be an additional feature for earlier detection of young convective clouds.  Cloud fraction of pixel obtained using HRVIS data shows more realistic values.  In order to achieve a robust estimate of cloud fraction (and eventually cloud top temperature) for young convective clouds, a number of points should be further investigated: a) more accurate 3-D radiative transfer for the estimation of fully cloudy reflectance; b) use of integrated water vapour content from NWP; b) use of integrated water vapour content from NWP; c) usefulness and derivation of a visible reflectance map based HRVIS data c) usefulness and derivation of a visible reflectance map based HRVIS data d) advantages of more detailed microphysical and geometrical models of young convective clouds; d) advantages of more detailed microphysical and geometrical models of young convective clouds; e) correction for co-registration shift between HRVIS and VIS data. e) correction for co-registration shift between HRVIS and VIS data.
