13 Relevant ee tdata assimilation at & modeling work at MSU Impact of NEXRAD data quantified through analysis of model background errors errors of a quantity computed between different forecast cycles (Parrish & Derber 1992) 12 UTC (Day 1) 00 UTC (Day 2) 12 UTC (Day 2) 00 UTC (Day 3) 00 UTC (Day 1) 12h forecast 24h forecast UTC (Day 1) o 12h forecast 24h forecast - 00 UTC (Day 2) x 24h-12h error 12h forecast 24h forecast 12 UTC (Day 2) x x 24h-12h error 12h forecast 00 UTC (Day 3) x x x 24h-12h error within our OSSE effort: model background error analysis will be used to calibrate free-running running simulations (i.e. nature runs) that assimilate synthetic observations and data representing ATMS /CrIS 13
14 Relatable data assimilation & modeling work F03h F09h F12h 14 w/ NEX XRAD w/ stand dard obs. observed
15 Case Events Identified ed from ECMWF HRNR May 2-4: squall line affecting all points along US Gulf coast MSLP (hpa) 3-h convective precipitation (mm). May 7-8: decaying squall line over TX Oct 10-11: 11: squall line / tropical wave 15
16 Status of MSU OSSE Progress to date HRNR data ready for OSSE HRNR assessment yields cases RSNR Requirements for OSSE synthetic observations simulated ATMS / CrIS CISd data Next step is to conduct RSNR (ATMS / CrIS) MM5/WRF The OSSE should be completed within 12 months Present OSSE could serve as model for future for future OSSE activities at MSU 16
