Preliminary tests on the Cycle of Hourly Assimilation and Forecast system in Guangzhou WAN Qi-lin, CHEN Zi-tong, DING Wei-yu, HUANG Yan-yan Institute of the tropical and marine meteorology, CMA, Guangzhou
Outline • Motivation • system introduce • Some tests • conclusions
Motivation • How to make use of high frequent observation data for improving numerical analysis and forecast . • How to give a good support to nowcasting
system introduce For short, the system is named as CFAF CHAF - The Cycle of Hourly Assimilation and Forecast based on Grapes - Global/ Regional Assimilation PrEdiction System
Domain • Grid resolution:0.12° CHAF domain
GRAPES-Model GRAPES-Var GRAPES_ MODEL GRAPES_ 3DVAR System flow chart Observation DATA background Cycle Pretreatment Increment interpolation Simple Cloud analysis Increment Digital Filter nudging Boundary (from coarse model) Operation Prediction
The Case choosing to understand the basic character of CHAF • The case is about a typhoon , the typhoon is landing and tend to weaken. • At 12UTC, 13 August,2005, a typhoon have been landing at Guangdong Province. • In the simulation test, we chose 12UTC as initial time ,and have performed 24h forecast.
The scheme of experiment--to check if the cycle would give birth to noise, and if the cycle would benefit to improve analysis filed. Test 1:The model run 24 hour, without cycle; Test 2:The model run 24 hour, with the cycle of hourly assimilation and forcast. The DFI window is six hour(-3,+3),and, the observation was not import。 Test 3: The model run 24 hour, with the cycle of hourly assimilation and forcast. The DFI window is six hour(-3,+3),and, the Sounding and surface observation was ingest。

conclusion • According to the result of the tests , we think that: the cycle of CHAF system did not arouse additional error evidently, the CHAF system must be capable of assimilation some high frequent observation.
The tests to assimilate high frequent observation. Cloud-drift wind Airline observation ( AMDAR ) Calculated Cloud (Cloud analysis)

Summary • In the CHAF system, the cycle did not arouse additional error evidently. • The analysis and forecast can be improved by use of high frequent observation data. • The CHAF system would have a good future in application to nowcasting. But • More research must be done to improve the cloud analysis,3DVAR, cycle system flow, etc. • Farther, a long time running must be performed to inspect the CHAF system.
The end, thank you !
