1 Design of the 30-year NCEP CFSRR T382L64 Global Reanalysis and T126L64 Seasonal Reforecast Project ( ) Suru Saha and Hua-Lu Pan, EMC/NCEP With Input from Stephen Lord, Mark Iredell, Shrinivas Moorthi, David Behringer, Ken Mitchell, Bob Kistler, Jack Woollen, Huug van den Dool, Catherine Thiaw and others

3 Operational Daily CFS 2 9-month coupled forecasts at 0000GMT (1) GR2 (d-3) atmospheric initial condition (2) Avg [GR2(d-3),GR2(d-4)] T62L28S2 MOM3 GODAS (d-7) oceanic initial condition
4 2004 CFS Reforecasts The CFS includes a comprehensive set of retrospective runs that are used to calibrate and evaluate the skill of its forecasts. Each run is a full 9-month integration. The retrospective period covers all 12 calendar months in the 24 years from 1981 to Runs are initiated from 15 initial conditions that span each month, amounting to a total of 4320 runs. Since each run is a 9-month integration, the CFS was run for an equivalent of 3240 yr!
5 An upgrade to the coupled atmosphere-ocean-seaice-land NCEP Climate Forecast System (CFS) is being planned for Jan Involves improvements to all data assimilation components of the CFS: the atmosphere with the new NCEP Gridded Statistical Interpolation Scheme (GSI) and major improvements to the physics and dynamics of operational NCEP Global Forecast System (GFS) the ocean and ice with the NCEP Global Ocean Data Assimilation System, (GODAS) and a new GFDL MOM4 Ocean Model the land with the NCEP Global Land Data Assimilation System, (GLDAS) and a new NCEP Noah Land model
6 For a new Climate Forecast System (CFS) implementation Two essential components: A new Reanalysis of the atmosphere, ocean, sea-ice and land over the 31-year period ( ) is required to provide consistent initial conditions for: A complete Reforecast of the new CFS over the 28-year period ( ), in order to provide stable calibration and skill estimates of the new system, for operational seasonal prediction at NCEP
7 There are 4 differences with the earlier two NCEP Global Reanalysis efforts: 1. Much higher horizontal and vertical resolution (T382L64) of the atmosphere (earlier efforts were made with T62L28 resolution) 2. The guess forecast will be generated from a coupled atmosphere ocean seaice - land system 3. Radiance measurements from the historical satellites will be assimilated in this Reanalysis 4. 4 Soil layers Noah Land Data Assimilation system

15 SOME NOTES PROPOSED TIME LINE FOR COMPLETION OF CFSRR January to December 2008: Begin Production and Evaluation of the CFS Reanalysis for the full period from 1979 to 2008 (30 years) January to December 2008: Begin running CFS Retrospective Forecasts for 2 initial months: October and April, and evaluate the monthly forecasts as well as the seasonal winter (Lead-1 DJF) and summer (Lead-1 JJA) forecasts. January to October 2009: Continue running the CFS Reforecasts (for the rest of the 10 calendar months) November 2009: Begin computing calibration statistics for CFS daily, monthly and seasonal forecasts. January 2010: Operational implementation of the next CFS monthly and seasonal forecast suite.
16 NOAA Collaborators NOAA/CPC is actively involved in the monitoring of the Reanalysis NOAA/NCDC is actively involved in the archival of the Reanalysis.
17 DATA ARCHIVAL NCDC/NOAA will archive and distribute both the CFS Reanalysis and Reforecasts, through their NOMADS system. Targets: CFS Reanalysis - mid 2009 Reforecast data - mid 2010.
18 Data to be archived and available from NCDC CFS Hi Res IC (6-hourly) T382L64 Atmosphere +.5 degree Ocean CFS Lo Res IC (6-hourly) T126L64 Atmosphere + 1 degree Ocean Full Ingest Data (6-hourly) All input data for the re-analysis pgbh 0.5 x 05 (Hourly) 37 standard pressure level atmosphere products flxf T382 Gaussian (Hourly) surface and radiative fluxes on model grid ocnh 0.5 x 0.5 (Hourly) 40 standard depth level ocean products diabf 1.0 x 1.0 (Hourly) 37 standard pressure level diabatic heating rates ipvh 0.5 x 0.5 (Hourly) 16 standard isentropic level atmosphere products
19 Status New format and improved SBUV ozone data Calibrated SSU radiance data (corrected for cell pressure leaks) has been tested for impact High resolution SST analysis has been tested for impact Satellite radiance bias correction estimated for each new satellite with a 3-month run of the full coupled GDAS at T382L64.
20 Status (contd) A mini T62L64 atmospheric-only Reanalysis is completed to pass through all atmospheric data from We had to adjust the streams as the later year data amount is much larger than earlier ones Results of 5-day forecasts made from every 0Z cycle are encouraging.

26 A Brief History of Conventional Data Preparation for Reanalysis at NCEP TEMP PILOT AIREP PIREP ACARS SATOB SYNOP MARINE BOGUS R1/R2 merged data sources from NCAR, NCDC, NCEP, JMA, and ECMWF R1/R2 merged qc d d datasets were packaged and delivered to the JMA-25 project R1/R2 datasets were reprocessed and enhanced by NCEP/NCAR for ERA-40 NCEP obtained the ECMWF MARS archive of conventional data, NCAR improved versions of key datasets, ie, COADS, ON29/RAOBS, ON124O R1/R2 and new datasets were merged for the North American Regional Reanalysis The latest versions of all source datasets were merged for the MERRA M project Much effort was made by MERRA people to find data gaps and other problems CFSRR will use conventional observations prepared for MERRA, CFSRR will use NCEP/NCO operational archives to overlay and complete
27 SNOW Current GFS OPS updates snow pack once per day (00z). SNO2MDL program maps NESDIS IMS and AFWA snow analysis data to physics grid. Output from SNO2MDL ingested by SFC- CYCLE program. Snow updated on model grid via direct replacement. CFSRR will follow similar procedure.
28 NESDIS IMS Data IMS Interactive Multisensor Snow and Ice Mapping System. NESDIS-SSD analyst uses satellite imagery and snow detection algorithms to determine snow cover over NH once per day. Cover is yes/no flag. 4 km resolution since Feb Product started Feb (23 km resolution). NIC in Suitland assumes responsibility for IMS starting Feb
29 AFWA Snow Depth Data AFWA SNODEP model produces global snow depth analysis once per day (47 km resolution). Uses microwave-based detection algorithms, in-situ reports of snow depth, and its own climatology. Analyst adjusts analysis based on satellite imagery in NH each day and in SH twice per week. Product has long history: all years of CFSRR acquired from NCDC by Mike Fennessy (COLA), who Gribbed it with help from EMC. EMC filled some gaps and removed several bad analyses to present in Air Force non-grib format used in present ops (via EMC archive of Jesse Meng) extracted from NCO run history files.

34 Jack Woolen and others have spent years improving the data base of conventional observations --much more complete than before --errors better understood Great deal of experience now with satellite bias corrections Experienced with changes in observations in last 10 years Knowledge is being applied to new reanalysis GFS produces much more skilled forecasts than CDAS --GFS has proven track record in forecasting hurricane tracks and in seasonal forecasts as CFS, indicating that GFS produces much more realistic tropical atmosphere than CDAS in both analyses and forecasts
35 CFSRR Execution: Jan-Dec 2008 Reanalysis :4 concurrent streams Reforecasts : April, Oct IBM RISC Execution: Jan-Oct 2009 Reforecasts : other 10 months Production
36 Purpose of the CFSRR 1. The reanalysis is intended to provide the best initial conditions for the CFS reforecast 2. The reanalysis can also be used to address calibration and statistical applications for weather and monthly forecasts 3. The reanalysis and reforecast can be used to address the coupled vs uncoupled forecasts from day one onward
