TEPS/LAMEPS • An ensemble prediction system using IFS and HIRLAM • Running daily since mid Feb. 2005 (quasi operational) • Focus: Precipitation (large precipitation events of special interest) • TEPS/LAMEPS is a supplement to EPS from ECMWF: • LAMEPS has better resolution • TEPS/LAMEPS is designed for our area of interest • Is valid for day 1 – 3
TEPS/LAMEPS – set-up TEPS/LAMEPS: • TEPS (global model) (~80 km/40 lev.): as EPS, except: • TEPS is targeted to our area of interest • 20 + 1 members (EPS 50 + 1) • LAMEPS (regional model, ~20 km / 40 lev.): • HIRLAM 20 + 1 members • Initial perturbations and lateral boundary conditions from TEPS (6 hourly updates on boundaries)
Verification area • Target area SVs Integration area HIRLAM
Running TEPS to +90h 20 + 1 members Generation of perturbations ECMWF 30 minutes 12 UTC 2 hours TEPS is automatically transferred to met.no TEPS is made ready to run in the Norwegian model environment 19 UTC TEPS is transferred to Trondheim Generation of HIRLAM perturbations 00 UTC Results from LAMEPS transferred back to met.no Generation of products for users/customers LAMEPS running 18 UTC, to +60h 50 minutes
Verification • 20+1 TEPS/LAMPES/EPS members • Time period 14/2-12/4-2005 • Parameter: 24 hours precipitation (from 06 to 06 UTC) • Forecast lengthsLAMEPS: +36 and +60 hoursTEPS : +42 and +66 hoursEPS : +42 and +66 hours

Summary verification • Small precipitation amounts – TEPS/EPS best • Medium precipitation amounts (~10 mm/day) - TEPS/EPS best • Large precipitation amounts (15 mm/day and more) – LAMEPS best

Future developments • Include perturbing of the model physics • Increase the time resolution of the boundary fields • Expand system to more parameters: temperature, wind, …. • Develop probability products • Compute SVs within HIRLAM • Move to higher resolution
