Initial condition perturbationsmodified by orography • Current setup: • add anomalies to operational COSMO-DE analysis fields for selected variables • Anomaly: BC-EPS minus short-range forecast (latest COSMO-EU) • Filter anomalies near the surface • Full anomaly above model level ~ 25, no perturbation below m.l. 40 • Modification: • Degree of perturbation depends on spatial variance of orography • The “smoother” the orography, the higher the degree of perturbation near the surface • Test period: March 2012, 00 UTC runs COSMO GM 2013, Sibiu C.

Future plans PLANS COSMO GM 2013, Sibiu C. Gebhardt, DWD
Future plans and options • calibration in operational mode (needs evaluation by forecasters) • add new physics perturbations or alternative perturbation methods (e.g. stochastic physics) • LETKF for IC perturbations (KENDA) • ICON-EPS for BC perturbations (2017 ?) • use time-lagged ensemble approach in product generation COSMO GM 2013, Sibiu C.
