  1. An Regional EnembleKalman Filter Data Assimilation System Employing GSI Observation Processing and InitialTests for Rapid Refresh Forecast Configurations Kefeng Zhu, Yujie Pan, Xue Ming and Xuguang Wang CAPS

  2. Code development status • EnKFv1----we modified the global EnSRF code from Dr. Jeff Whitaker of ESRL and linked this EnSRF package with the regional GSI for RR application. • EnKFv2---- we merged regional EnKF with the latest global EnKF, by moving codes specific to regional EnKF into a unified version. And a new flag ‘iflagreg’ was added to control the regional analysis option. In this unified version, the variables updated during the regional EnKF assimilation were x-component wind (U), y-component wind (V), potential temperature (T), perturbation geopotential(PH, not used in the previous EnKFv1), water vapor mixing ratio (Q) and perturbation dry air mass in column (Mu). • EnKFv3----instead of interpolating the U and V to the A grid during the EnKF analysis process, we keep the U and V in the original C grids

The verification period are from 00 UTC May 8 ~ 06 UTC May 16, 2010. There are 66 samples collected for the observation type ADPSFC, SFCSHP, PROFLR, but 16 samples for the ADPUPA

  17. Longer hour single forecast from ensemble mean analyses sea land Surface verification: The plots above are the average forecasts innovation of single forecast from ensemble mean analyses for the time period from 00UTC May 8 to 03 UTC May 16, 2010. The cycle interval is 3 hours. Totally, there are 66 samples for this statistic. Up air verification: since the observation of ADPUPA are only available at 00, 12 Z. Therefore, for the vertical profile followed, we average the 12 hour forecasts innovation from 00, 12Z. There are totally 17 samples.
