  1. Summer and Winter Seasonal Prediction over CONUS with RSM Regional Climate model Jun Wang and Henry Juang EMC/NCEP This work is sponsored by the GAPP program of NOAA/OAR/NCPO

  2. Contents • NCEP RSM RCM run • Summer seasonal prediction of CFS and RSM RCM • Winter seasonal prediction of CFS and RSM RCM • Statistical score • Summary

  3. RSM Regional Climate Model • Model: Nested GSM+RSM GSM: GFS2003 T62L28 RSM: RSM2004 50km, 28 levels • Domain: CONUS • Hindcast: * A 3-member ensemble of 1 month lead forecast from 1982-2001 * Initial Condition: Last day of previous month and the first two days of current month * Boundary Condition: predicted SST from CFS, RSM gets boundary condition from GSM

  4. RSM RCM domain

  5. Summer 1999 Casea strong U.S. monsoon event • Climatology: 3 member ensemble from 1982 to 2001 • Observed and predicted anomalies: Sst Precip 2 meter Temp Surface Latent hear flux 200hpa hgt 500hpa hgt

  21. Summary • Both CFS and RSM RCM show some skills in winter ENSO event and in monsoon event. • The large scale features of the forecast from RSM RCM is consist with those features from CFS prediction. • The forecast RSM catches more realistic small scale details. The interactions between small scale phenomena and large skill phenomena change the seasonal climate prediction, the RSM RCM creates a value –added products based on CFS.
