2 Outline Some background 2016 CAPS SSEF highlight GSI+EnKF cycled DA Validation, and comparison to non-cycled 3DVAR-based SSEF
3 History of CAM Ensemble for HWT CAPS produced 3DVAR-based CONUS scale multi-model multi-physics SSEF since 2007 to support NOAA HWT Spring Experiment every year. Recent years, more institutions join the game. CAPS still plays major role. Models run for the HWT since Ensembles in 2015! CAPS Plot from Adam Clark, NOAA/NSSL

11 9 May UTC (1h fcst) Both 3DVAR and EnKF reflectivity matches observation reasonably well. But 3DVAR produces more spurious echoes over US, in general. ** Model reflectivitiy is the PM mean unless said otherwise.** OBS 3DVAR EnKF
12 Storms developing in an arc shape are better captured by EnKF. EnKF also show less spurious echoes on the west half of CONUS. 9 May UTC (2h fcst) OBS 3DVAR EnKF
13 9 May UTC (6h fcst) Bow shape is predicted better with EnKF. OBS 3DVAR EnKF

18 2015 Result: EnKF vs 3DVAR 2015 CAPS EnKF DA didn t have GSI component only the 15-min interval radar EnKF cycling from UTC had been done EnKF perform significantly worse than 3DVAR a b
19 Summary: GSI+EnKF vs 3DVAR In general, both 3DVAR and GSI+EnKF are producing useful forecasts. Last year, 3DVAR produced much more skillful forecast than EnKF (no GSI in 2015) This year, there are days and times that 3DVAR or EnKF did better then the other. Qualitatively, EnKF forecast seems as good as 3DVAR s or better, at least for short-term forecasts (< 18 hrs). Still, there are times that 3DVAR produced more skillful forecast than GSI+EnKF and at significantly lower cost. These results are preliminary and not a fair comparison. Mesonet and aircraft data are missing for the EnKF DA. More tuning is necessary and will be done for GSI+EnKF
