1 Short-Range Ensemble Prediction System at INM José A. García-Moya SMNT – INM 27th EWGLAM & 12th SRNWP Meetings Ljubljana, October 2005

2 October 2005 27th EWGLAM & 12th SRNWP Meetings2 Introduction Surface parameters are the most important ones for weather forecast. Forecast of extreme events (convective precip, gales,…) is probabilistic even for the short-range. Short Range Ensemble prediction can help to forecast these events. Forecast risk (Palmer, ECMWF Seminar 2002) is the goal for both Medium- and, also, “Short-Range Prediction” (quotation is mine).

4 October 2005 27th EWGLAM & 12th SRNWP Meetings4 Errors in LAMs Due to the model formulation Multimodel techniques Due to uncertainties in the initial state Singular vectors, breeding Due to uncertainties at boundaries From different deterministic global models From a global ensemble Due to the parameterization schemes Multiphysic Stochastic physic techniques

27 October 2005 27th EWGLAM & 12th SRNWP Meetings27 Advantages: Better representation of model errors (SAMEX and DEMETER). Consistent set of perturbations of initial state and boundaries. Better results (SAMEX, DEMETER, Arribas et al., MWR 2005). Disadvantages: Difficult to implement operationally (four different models should be maintained operationally). Expensive in terms of human resources. No control experiment in the ensemble. Conclusions for Multimodel

28 October 2005 27th EWGLAM & 12th SRNWP Meetings28 Future 16 members full-operational Bias removal Calibration: Bayessian Model Averaging Verification against observations Time-lagged 64 members 4runs/day More Post processing software (targeting clustering)
