Temp 2m - 7km vs 3km Fall Winter Spring Summer Underestimation of Temp, mainly in winter error 2-2.5 deg, worse with 7km by 0.5 Clear diurnal cycle WG5 COSMO General Meeting, Moscow 2010
Wind Speed - 7km vs 3km Fall Winter Spring Summer Overestimation of wind (00,24), less in summer 2-2.5deg bias, higher in winter similar attitude of 2 models WG5 COSMO General Meeting, Moscow 2010
2m Temp WINTER Wind Speed Underestimation of Temp during midday hours, overetimation of wind, large error in analysis field WG5 COSMO General Meeting, Moscow 2010

Change in Point Selection Method 3D optimized 30km radius Higher POD for radius but also higher FAR ? WG5 COSMO General Meeting, Moscow 2010
Change in Point Selection Method 3D optimized 30km radius Overestimation of small amount of rain with rdius method Similar ETS
WAM Conditional Verification Extracting information for relevant performance of weather parameters The input from modelers and forecasters is necessary for identifying and testing hypotheses. WG5 COSMO General Meeting, Moscow 2010
