  1. NCEP Data Reanalysis 陳漢卿

  2. Data analyses • Use the data available for the original operational NCEP analyses. (available from 1962) • Add other datasets to capture the older data from 1948.

  3. Global rawinsonde data • NCEP GTS data with upper-air observation from 1962 is main data source. • The count of significant level winds was low from August 1989 to September 1991. ECMWF Supplied data to fill the gap

  4. COADS surface marine data • First release in 1983 & updated recently. • Include ship, fixed buoys, drifting buoys, pack-ice buoys, near surface data from ocean station reports, and other data. • An update for 1980-93 has been completed.

  5. Aircraft data • Aircraft data is available from NCEP GTS source starting in 1962. • Additional data from several source: • Data from New Zealand (Feb.1984-June 1988) • GARP Atlantic Tropical Experiment (GATE)(1974) • First GARP Global Experiment (FGGE)(1979) • USAF reconnaissance data (start from1947) • Tropical Wind Energy Conversion Reference Level Equipment (TWERLE)(July1975-Aug.1976)

  6. Surface land synoptic data • Global GTS data are available starting from 1967 from air force or NCEP. • The data coverage is good from 1949.

  7. Satellite sounder data • Be available for the following periods: • SIRS IR sounder 1969 – 1971 • SIRS on early NMC tapes 1969 – 1992 • VTPR IR sounder 1972 – 1979 • TOVS sounder 1978 – present • HIRS data test system 1975 – 1976 • First phase of reanalysis use the TOVS data. • Second phase of reanalysis use 3D assimilation of variances.

  8. SSM/I surface wind speeds • Special Sensing Microwave/Imager became available in 1987 . • At NCEP, the assimilation of surface winds became operational in 1993. • Results in wind speeds closer to buoys wind speed and with better coverage under cloudy than present operational algorithm used at NCEP. • Do not use SSM/I surface wind speeds data at first phase of reanalysis. Use SSM/I surface wind speeds & precipitable water data at 2nd phase of reanalysis.

  9. Data preprocessor • The purpose of the preprocessing reanalysis is to reformat the data coming form many different sourcesinto uniform BUFR and preprocess 1 or more year at a time before actual reanalysis. • Preprocessor allows human monitor can take corrective action before actual reanalysis.

  10. Satellite data • A special satellite TOVS soundings data monitoring system has been developed. • Data in grid boxes of 10°x10°. • The average in the box, the variance in the box, and the absolute value of tendency of the box average are compared with a climatology.

  11. Climatological QC test of data • The automatic monitoring system developed for the reanalysis output is based on climatological tests with 3D statistics computed. • Allow human monitors to check for unusual data before the monthly reanalysis.

  12. Boundary field • SST: Reynolds reanalysis for 1982. • Snow cover: NESDIS weekly analyses. • Sea ice: Derived from SMMR/SMI data. Incorporated into SST analysis (SST<-1.8℃considered sea ice) • Albedo: Matthews(1985) • Soil wetness: Use the Pan & Mahrt (1987) soil model • Roughness length: From SiB • Vegetation: From SiB.
