1 Observations for improving high impact weather forecasts from convective to global scales. Roger Saunders and Stefan Klink with input from DAOS-WG members
2 Overview A good and bad example Satellite Observations In-situ Observations Requirements for high impact weather forecasting
3 MOGREPS-15 forecast evolution 925hPa wind (gust indicator) > 60kt From 8 days to 2 days ahead Note consistency of signal for highest probability in Biscay throughout the evolution Although ensemble alerted low risk of storm further north, most likely was a useful guide throughout
4 Outcome 00UTC 16 th Dec Low tracked along English Channel Strong winds in Northern France and Germany but not UK Snow in Wales and English Midlands Ensemble provided excellent guidance and risk assessment throughout St Malo, Brittany

16 T-PARC Summer Phase (2008): Overall impact of dropwindsondes on TC track 16 Weissmann et al. (2011)
17 2010/11 WSR campaign
18 Scatterplot of impacts For each case where dropsondes were launched, a downstream target location and verification time are identified. Data are plotted here only for these times/target locations. Verification area here is a +/- 10 degree box centered on target. Verification norm is an approximation to the total-energy norm. Cases above line indicate benefit from targeted data. No obvious beneficial impact.
19 Summary of targeting Clear benefits of targeted observations for TC forecasts. In study with 4D-Var assimilation & ECMWF model, little impact seen for mid-latitude systems (2011 WSR) but continue to study this. Targeting s future: Global observational network design: use targeting strategies to adaptively select / thin satellite data for assimilation? Potential to adapt targeting concepts to work in concert with rapidly adaptable observational resources, e.g., cloud-drift winds from rapid-scan imagery. But: need quick, efficient algorithms.

24 EUMETNET E-AMDAR Humidity Trial Commercial aircraft measurements complement but could also partly replace traditional radiosonde soundings; EUMETNET STAC is currently working on a business case for a further roll-out of aircraft humidity sensors; 3 WVSS-II sensors currently tested on commercial aircraft, one on research aircraft; 6 further WVSS-II sensors will be installed in GIE/EIG EUMETNET, Registered Number RPM Bruxelles
25 AMDAR q / TAMDAR study (just started) - Motivation Key questions: 1)Does it make sense to further invest money into procurement of more WVSS-II humidity sensors to be installed on commercial aircraft which belong to the E- AMDAR programme? 2)Is TAMDAR an alternative to E-AMDAR observations or is it complementary to E-AMDAR? 3)In case WVSS-II or TAMDAR sensors prove to have a beneficial impact on NWP forecast skill, how many sensors should be installed?

27 Experiment design Experiment type: OSE Models: Verification: Global: DWD, ECMWF?, Météo-France? LAM over US (Midwest region): DWD, Météo-France? Focus on verification against observations Special emphasis should be given on verification of precipitation forecasts: against hourly SYNOP data or against US radar-derived precipitation? Possible? GIE/EIG EUMETNET, Registered Number RPM Bruxelles
28 AMDAR q/ TAMDAR OSE Scenarios Scenario no 1: Baseline All operationally used satellite observations + all screen level observations (SYNOP, BUOY, SHIP, METAR, ) + all radiosondes (temperature and humidity) and all AMDAR (temperature and wind only); (no radar-derived precipitation, no GPS, no AMDAR humidity, no TAMDAR, this reflects current European operational setup more or less) GIE/EIG EUMETNET, Registered Number RPM Bruxelles
29 AMDAR q/ TAMDAR OSE Scenarios Scenario no 2: Baseline + AMDAR humidity Scenario no 3: Baseline + TAMDAR (temperature, wind and humidity) Scenario no 4: Baseline + AMDAR humidity + TAMDAR (temperature, wind and humidity) GIE/EIG EUMETNET, Registered Number RPM Bruxelles

41 Priorities for the EUMETNET Observations Programme ) To foster the OPERA developments in order to be able to produce quantitatively usable 2D radar products and to exchange single site 3D volume data (reflectivity, Doppler winds) by the end of the programme phase; 2) To further expand the E-AMDAR Operational Service by trying to extend the horizontal coverage over the EUCOS area and by considering a further roll-out of humidity sensors on board E-AMDAR aircraft; 3) GIE/EIG EUMETNET, Registered Number RPM Bruxelles
42 Motivation for impact studies (External) drivers and developments: Different observation networks evolve differently (e.g. regarding availability, accuracy, cost,...) Data assimilation algorithms improve and can make use of more data New requirements from km-scale NWP EUMETNET Observations Programme objective: Design and coordinate the evolution of the ground based EUMETNET composite observing system (EUCOS) to be optimized at European scale with a view to improve short range forecast... A modification of the meteorological observing network might become necessary EUMETNET Observations Programme needs approval for network changes or modifications from STAC/PFAC and EUMETNET Assembly respectively In order to get the 29 Members convinced of such changes it was decided to base them on scientific analyses (e.g. impact studies) GIE./EIG EUMETNET, Registered Number RPM Bruxelles
43 Requirements Crown Copyright Source: Met Office
44 Requirements (Global) Global NWP has a wealth of observations but there are still some significant data voids: Global rainrate observations at hourly sampling or less Satellite data over land at low levels (T, q) Satellite and in-situ data over polar regions Stratospheric constituent concentration Measurements of solid precipitation (snow, hail) Data thinned (spatial, temporal and spectral)
45 Requirements (Mesoscale) Convective scale models need new observations at high spatial resolution from both surface and satellites Radar reflectivity and line of sight winds Rapid scan AMVs GPS TCVW sites Geo and polar radiances (IR/MW sounders, imagers) Groundbased lidars Regional aircraft profiles
46 Key Messages How to bridge the gap between data assimilation/other users (e.g. nowcasting) and observation network management in NHMSs. Satellites dominate the forecast impact for global NWP. To date targeted observations only show impact for TCs. More work on using adaptive observing systems (e.g. radiosonde launch on demand, changing sat data thinning) Convective scale DA is in its infancy and will benefit from new mesonet observing systems in addition to radar and satellite observations. We will always need more impact studies for HIW!
