Goal & Work flow of ICE-POP 2018 GOAL: Advancing seamless prediction from nowcasting to short-range forecast for winter weathers over complex terrains with intensive observation campaign FDP RDP • Develop Nowcasting & NWP • Nowcating with intensive observation • Snow & cloud Physics • Sub-km NWP • Winter weather monitoring • Winter Nowcasting • Sub km scale NWP products • Winter games guidance Public • Intensive Observation Campaign • High resolution 3D structure • Multi spectral Radar • Microphysics Olympic forecasters IOC, LOC • Contribute a science community in terms of winter weather
Scientific Challenges • To create valuable, reliable and accessible thermodynamical and hydrometeorological Intensive observation data sets for winter weather over a complex terrain through IOP • Ground validation of satellite (i.e. ADM Aeolus GPM snow retrieval) • To understand microphysical processes over complex terrain such as snow size, shape distribution, vertical structure with multi-frequency radar and various microphysical observations (i.e. Radarsite 1 and supersites) with better quality control • To develop comparison study of sub km scale NWP models in mesoscale winter weather condition over complex terrain with dense observation networks to understand predictability of high resolution NWP models • GEM-LAM(0.2K), COSMO(0.17K), MPAS(0.2K), UM (< 0.3K), WRF( ) • To evaluate the benefit of different nowcasting approaches to develop seamless prediction from nowcasting to short-range NWP prediction • MAPLE, INCA, CAN, FINECAST, INTW will be operated to support forecasters • Analysis, prediction and blending method will be evaluated to understand the optimal way to make a seamless prediction with nowcating and NWP prediction • To advance physical processes of snow microphysics, surface processes over land and ocean, and fog/low level cloud processes • The Predicted Particle Properties(P3) scheme will be calibrated with the observation and implemented in WRF and UM • Fog/low level cloud physics in NWP • Land surface model and interaction with atmosphere will be compared

Summary • ICE-POP2018 is endorsed as an official RDP/FDP by WMO at 27 November 2015 • Up to now 10 countries are joined the ICE-POP 2018 to advance seamless prediction from nowcasting to short-range forecast for winter weathers over complex terrains by developing intensive observation network and numerical models. • Intensive observation network was designed to produce reliable thermodynamic and hydrophysical observation • 4 x-band radar, 3 cloud radars, 2 wind liders, and ground instruments (8 supersites) are joined IOP together with operational observation at KMA • Aircraft will cover oceans and upper level hydrometeor observations. • Sea condition will be observed by the ship and satellite. • The data sharing system is installed and will be available before 17 winter for the ICE-POP participants and will be released later. • Several nowcasting systems and high resolution NWP models joined to advance seamless prediction from nowcasting to very-short range prediction • 5 nowcating systems and 7 sub km scale NWP models join the project • DA capability of assimilating the IOP data is under development • Forecast communication method tools are being developed.
