Rationale: upper-level features are associated to stratospheric intrusions into the upper troposphere that can be identified using satellite data (WV, ozone…). There are : Dry patterns High PV patterns

Tools : sensitivity studies To humidity (corrections) To PV(inversion) Within ARPEGE (global, 23km resolution over western Europe)+Aladin (Lam, 10km)+AROME (LAM over France, 2.5km resolution, NH)

Conclusions (1) In the case of the Mediterranean MCS (05 Sept 2005) the precipitating activity seems to be sensitive to mid to upper-level moisture and to PV. Upper-level PV, as it triggers a low-level southerly flow over the gulf of Lion, indirectly contributes to convective activity. Moisture gradients are likely area for convective initiation and also seem to help the stationarity (crucial to understand since it is associated with strong accumulated precipitations

Conclusions (2) Klaus windstorm activity is weakly sensitive to initial condition humidity On the one hand, it is not possible to recognize the diabatic Rossby wave behaviour in that case On the other hand, diabatic processes are reduced for about 6h. Afterwards remnants of diabatic processes may be found in the vicinity of the tropopause downstream wrt the cyclone Klaus windstorm behaves like a type-B cyclone development since it is sensitive to upper-PV. IC failures may be corrected by experts (forecasters) and the subsequent forecast may be eventually improved.
