COSMO-SREPS Priority Project C. Marsigli ARPA-SIM, Bologna, Italy
COSMO-SREPS • aim: to develop a limited-area ensemble system for the short-range considering also small scale uncertainty boundary conditions initial conditions LAM ensemble model (LM): schemes, parameters, surface forcings • i.c. and b.c. perturbations -> INM multi-model • LM perturbations
people involved in the PP • Involved COSMO people: • Marsigli, Montani, Paccagnella (ARPA-SIM) • + collaborations: • S. Theis (DWD) – discussion on the methodologies and sharing of perturbation techniques • U. Schaettler (DWD) – new version of LM developed to move from the code to a namelist a number of tuneable parameters • WG2 and WG3 people has provided a parameter list • Non-COSMO: • INM (Spain): J. Garcia-Moya, J. Simarro, …

ic and bc: multi-model approach • a MUlti-Model MUlti-Boundaries ensemble is operational at INM (Spain): 4 different limited-area models (HIRLAM, HRM, MM5, UM) are nested on 5 different global models (IFS, GME, AVN, UM, LM) => 20 members ensemble (25 km horizontal resolution) • LM has been added in May 2006 IFS LM 25km GME LM 25km AVN LM 25 km UM LM 25 km Courtesy of INM

Task 0. Preliminary actions for the system set-up • Formal agreement between COSMO and INM: • use of LM by INM: support has been given to INM -> done • provision of the forecasts to COSMO: SREPS output available • From May 2006 3-hourly initial and boundary conditions for COSMO-SREPS are provided daily at ECMWF on ECFS: 4 LM runs at 25 km on an Euro-Atlantic area, nested on 4 different global models (IFS,GME,AVN,UKMO) interpolated with int2lm at 10 km over the COSMO-LEPS area
Task 1. Definition of the methodologies to perturb model trajectories • Schemes (physics and numerics): Some schemes have been selected to be perturbed: Tiedtke, Tiedtke with cape closure, Kain-Fritsch, 2-time-level, Runge-Kutta • Parameters: • a first selection of the parameters has been done (analysis of few case studies) • the new tuneable parameters will be tested (provided by external collaborations of WG3 people + Susanne Theis) • Surface forcings: LM surface fields -> interest of Luca Bonaventura to test a technique for the perturbation of surface parameters -> to be developed Task 2.Definition of the methodologies to perturb initial conditions: it will start in October with a visit to Bologna of Neill Bowler from UKMO.
Task 3. System set-up: • Data transfer between INM and ECMWF: done • Adaptation of source code to give the possibility to use tuneable or random parameters: the new model version model will include a new namelist file in which many physical parameters can be set (Uli Schaettler, WG6) -> done • Extracting LM frames and nesting of LM on LM frames (WG6):to be discussed • Discussion on computer resources:during 2006 SP SPITLAEF is being used. A new Special Project submitted to ECMWF for the developing phase for 2007 (SPITFEAR). Collection of COSMO units to be discussed. • Establish the link SIR-COSMO SREPS:this meeting • Possibility to have a COSMO originating centre in the GRIB coding:to be discussed (possible link with TIGGE)
Task 4. Test on case studies • Test of SREPS prototype on real-time case studies and comparison with COSMO-LEPS and “model perturbed COSMO-LEPS”: • run of COSMO-SREPS for 1 case study to test that the chain from INM to COSMO-SREPS is working -> done • run of COSMO-SREPS with model perturbations only for 1 month of Autumn 2006: • statistical analysis of the system • provide b.c. for EELMK tests • comparison with COSMO-LEPS and PEPS
Plans for 2006-2007 • Task 5. Test on a regular basis • Task 5.1 selection of the methodology to generate the perturbations : • parameters: based on the analysis of the results of the 1-month test period • development of the i.c. perturbations technique • Task 5.2 selection of the testing period: • possible link with MAP D-PHASE (summer-autumn 2007) • availability of observations (-> WG5) • Task 5.3 investigation on computer resources: • COSMO units available? • Task 5.4 INM data availability
