Spatial predictin and data assimilatin Precipitatin extremes Cmbining IPCC climate mdel exp. Supprted by the Natinal Science Fundatin CAS2K5, Annecy, FR, Sep 2005
2 Anther way f summarizing the talk Part 1: Observatins are in the wrng place! Part 2 Observatins d nt measure what we want! Part 3 Nt sure what we have bserved!
3 Statistical Science What d yu want t knw? e.g. θ What have yu measured? e.g Y Relate them using a prbability distributin. e.g. Data = parameter errr = θ θ Characterize reasnable values fr θ given the data 0
4 The statistical methd Fr cmplicated prblems Use Bayesian mdels and Mnte Carl methds t generate a statistical ensemble fr θ. The ensemble mean is a gd estimate fr θ. The spread is a gd measure f uncertainty fr θ.
5 Part 1: Observatins are in the wrng place! Air quality
6 Spatial Predictin Predict surface zne where it is nt mnitred Ambient daily zne in PPB June 16, 1987, US Midwestern Regin
7 A mdel fr the spatial field The zne surface has a mean and variance that can vary ver space. The crrelatin f zne at tw different lcatins has a knwn frm. Ozne fllws a Gaussian distributin
8 An ensemble apprach Start with a ensemble f fields that are distributed accrding t nes best guess r frecast withut cnsulting the data. Update each member f the ensemble using the bserved data. The sample mean and cvariances amng the ensemble members culd be used fr the update calculatins. This is the same algrithm used in the ensemble Kalman filter fr numerical weather predictin

11 Spatial Predictin The ensemble mean A Kriging, Bayes, OI,, BLUE slutin
12 A real ensemble frecast. Updates dne as in zne example
13 Part 2 Observatins d nt measure what we want!
14 Precipitatin extremes Hw will climate change effect extreme precipitatin? Extremes in precipitatin are used t determine fld ptential fr urban areas, fr dam and radway specificatins and als have extensive eclgical imprtance. Hw des ne estimate extremes where n bservatins are made? Hw des ne determine a pssible 25 year event frm 20 years wrth f data? Typically extremes are described by the return perid: A 25 year event = prbability f seeing this value (r higher) in a given year is 1/25 r 4%

19 A spatial mdel fr precipitatin extremes Use extreme value statistical thery t apprximate the distributin f large values three parameters. Assume that the parameters f the distributin vary ver space. (see Part 1.) If yu knw the parameters f the distributin this can easily be cnverted t a 25 year return level.
