3 Motivation for stochastic parameterizations Unreliable and over- confident ensemble forecasts Breakdown of quasi- equilibrium assump:on at small scales Persistent systema:c errors (e.g. blocking) Scale- aware parameteriza:on
4 Representing initial uncertainty by an ensemble of states Represent ini:al uncertainty by ensemble of states Flow- dependence: Predictable states should have small ensemble spread Unpredictable states should have large ensemble spread t 0 RMS error Ensemble spread should grow like RMS error True atmospheric state should be indis:nguishable from ensemble system ensemble mean t1 analysis t

8 Potential to reduce model error Stochas:c parameteriza:ons can change the mean and variance of a PDF Potential Impacts variability of model (e.g. internal variability of the atmosphere) Impacts systema:c error (e.g. blocking precipita:on error) PDF Weak noise Strong noise Unimodal Multi-modal
9 Stochastic parameterization schemes Stochas:c kine:c- energy backscauer scheme (SKEBS) Ra:onale: A frac:on of the dissipated kine:c- energy is scauered upscale and acts as forcing for the resolved flow (ShuUs, 005,Berner et al. 009,11,1,14) Stochas:cally perturbed parameteriza:on scheme (SPPT) Ra:onale: Especially as resolu:on increases, the equilibrium assump:on is no longer valid and fluctua:ons of the subgrid- scale state should be sampled (Buizza et al. 1999, Palmer et al. 009, Berner et al. 014)

Here: simply considered as addi:ve noise with spa:al and temporal correla:ons Similar to ECMWF global ensemble system (ShuUs 005, Berner et. al 08,09) but with constant dissipa:on rate and poten:al temperature perturba:ons (Berner et al. 011). a)

Spectral Markov chain: temporal and spatial correlations prescribed
27 Stochastically perturbed tendency scheme (SPPT) Ra:onale: Especially as resolu:on increases, the equilibrium assump:on is no longer valid and fluctua:ons of the subgrid- scale state should be sampled (Buizza et al. 1999, Palmer et al. 009, Berner et al. 014) X t = DX + (r+1)px Local tendency for variable X Dynamical tendencies => Resolved scales Physical tendencies => Unresolved scales
