10 Conventional convective parameterisation For a constant large-scale situation, a conventional parameterisaion models the convection independently of space: Development of a stochastic convection scheme p.10/45
11 Conventional convective parameterisation This leads to a uniform, mean value of convection whatever the grid box size: Development of a stochastic convection scheme p.11/45
12 Stochastic parameterisation A stochastic scheme allows the number and strength of clouds to vary consistent with the large-scale situation: Development of a stochastic convection scheme p.12/45
13 Effect of Paramterisation Of course, this has no effect if the grid box is large enough: Development of a stochastic convection scheme p.13/45
14 Stochastic Parameterisation But for a smaller gridbox... Development of a stochastic convection scheme p.14/45
15 Effect of Paramterisation The scheme allows some convective variability: Development of a stochastic convection scheme p.15/45

24 Plant Craig scheme: Methodology Obtain the large-scale state by averaging resolved flow variables over both space and time. Obtain M from CAPE closure and define the equilibrium distribution of m (Cohen-Craig theory). Draw randomly from this distribution to obtain cumulus properties in each grid box. Compute tendencies of grid-scale variables from the cumulus properties. Development of a stochastic convection scheme p.24/45
25 Plant Craig scheme: Averaging area Development of a stochastic convection scheme p.25/45
26 Plant Craig scheme: Probability distribution Assuming a statistical equilibrium leads to an exponential distribution of mass fluxes per cloud: p(m)dm = 1 ( ) m m exp dm. m So if m r 2 then the probability of initiating a plume of radius r in a timestep dt is ( ) M 2r r 2 m r 2 exp dr dt r 2 T.

28 Ensemble Forecasting & Stochastic Paramterisation Single Deterministic Forecast: Ė 0 (X,t) = A(E 0,X,t) + P(E 0 ); E 0 (X, 0) = I(X) Ensemble of Deterministic Forecasts: Ė j (X,t) = A(E j,x,t) + P(E j ); E j (X, 0) = I(X) + D j (X) Ensemble of Stochastic Forecasts: Ė j (X,t) = A(E j,x,t) + P j (E j,t); E j (X, 0) = I(X) + D j (X) Development of a stochastic convection scheme p.28/45
29 PDF of total mass flux Assuming that clouds are non-interacting, p(m) can be combined with a Poisson distribution for cloud number, p(n) = N N e N N! leading to the following distribution for total mass flux: ( ) ( ) 1/2 N p(m) = e ( N +M/ m ) M 1/2 N I 1 2 m m M., Development of a stochastic convection scheme p.29/45

31 3D Idealised UM setup Radiation is represented by a uniform cooling. Convection, large scale precipitation and the boundary layer are parameterised.

43 Rainfall against time for each of three schemes PC cv PC ls PC tot GR cv GR ls GR tot KF cv KF ls KF tot mean rainfall (kg m 2 ) time (hours) Development of a stochastic convection scheme p.43/45
44 Future work Implement the PC scheme in MOGREPS, to determine its impact on variability. Run on NAE domain ( 20 km), for one Summer month. Compare with existing GR run and deterministic version of PC. Look at the effect of the scheme, and its stochastic nature, on the variability of the ensemble and the spread-error relationship. Development of a stochastic convection scheme p.44/45
45 Conclusions The convective variability in the scheme is according to the Cohen Craig theory, and is not due to spurious noise from the large-scale. An averaging area of roughly 160 km is required to effect this. The statistical behaviour of the scheme is correct at different resolutions, although the amount of averaging required may vary. The scheme behaves sensibly in a mesoscale setup, and is ready to be implemented in an ensemble prediction system. Development of a stochastic convection scheme p.45/45
