1 Preliminary evaluation of the impact of the FORMOSAT 7R wind on tropical cyclone assimilation and prediction Shu Chih Yang 1,2, Cheng Chieh Kao 1,2, Wen Hao Yeh 3 and Stefani Huang 1 1 Dept. of Atmospheric sciences, National Central University, Taiwan 2 GPS Science and Application Research Center, National Central University, Taiwan 3 National Space Organization, National Applied Research Laboratory, Taiwan
2 FORMOSAT 7R Earth coverage 1 day Global coverage The satellite FORMOSAT 7 Reflectometry, as a part of 12 FORMOSAT 7/COSMIC 2 mission satellites, is built as GNSS Reflectometric mission (Formosat 7R, will launch in the end of 2010s). The altitude of the mission orbit is 600km and its inclination angle is 72deg. Measure the roughness and wind speed on ocean surface.

4 Mission requirement Goal Measurement requirements parameters Expected performance Measurement under precipitation condition < 120mm/hr Wind speed retrieval under TC range m/s Wind speed error 10% Wind speed under regular conditions resolution range Wind speed error 25 km 3 20 m/s 1 m/s
5 Motivation Compared to the Atlantic ocean, TC targeted observations are limited over the Pacific ocean. Predicting TC intensity relies on the dropsondes or other vortex initialization schemes when TCs develop over ocean. The FORMOSAT 7R wind speed data has the advantage of observing high wind speed over TC inner core. Observation system simulation experiments are conducted to investigate the potential impact of the FORMOSAT 7R wind speed on TC assimilation and prediction. Understand the observation impact from different satellite wind products, including: Air motion vector (AMV), scatterometer wind and GNSS R windspeed

7 Assimilation experiments Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF V3.7.1) coupled with Local Ensemble Transform Kalman Filter (NCU WRF LETKF, Yang et al. 2013) Simulated RWS data are derived by directly interpolating the model 10 m wind speed to Robservation locations. DA Experiments: CNTL: GTS only RWS: GTS+GPS Reflectometry wind speed (RWS, 2.5 m/s) RWSLA: GTS+ RWS with low accuracy (5m/s) RWSAMV: GTS+RWS+AMV SCAT: GTS+SCAT wind (no data > 30m/s) 40 ensemble members Period: 06Z 23 00Z 25 SEP (6 h DA interval) 4 day forecast initialized at 00Z 25 SEP

16 Summary The FORMOSAT 7R wind speed data has the potential to improve TC assimilation and prediction. Positive impact can be obtained even with limited data in the inner core. The accuracy of the surface wind speed data is essential for depicting TC intensity, including the horizontal and vertical structure. When comparing with the satellite wind products, AMV and R wind data could be complementary. When both are assimilated, the TC structure and track can be better analyzed and predicted, leading to improvement on precipitation prediction. Further investigations based on realistic framework will be carried out by the wind speed data retrieved from DDMs.
