Caio A. S. Coelho, S. Pezzulli, M. Balmaseda (*), F. J. Doblas-Reyes (*) and D. B. Stephenson Forecast calibration and combination: A simple Bayesian approach Department of Meteorology, University of Reading and ECMWF (*) Aim: To create reliable probability forecasts from ensembles of predictions

Empirical forecasts of Niño-3.4 Well-calibrated: Most observations in the 95% prediction interval (P.I.) 95% P.I.

ECMWF coupled model ensemble forecasts  Observations not within the 95% prediction interval!  Coupled model forecasts need calibration m=9 DEMETER: 5-month lead

Conceptual framework Data Assimilation “Forecast Assimilation”

Prior: Univariate X and Y Posterior: Likelihood: Bayes’ theorem:

Modelling the likelihood p(X|Y) y

Combined forecasts  Note: most observations within the 95% prediction interval!

All forecasts ForecastMAE (  C) Skill Score (%) Uncert. (  C) Climatolog y Empirical Coupled Combined Skill Score = [1- MAE/MAE(climatology)]*100% Empirical Coupled Combined

Prior: Likelihood: Posterior: Multivariate X and Y bias Matrices

Conclusions Forecast Assimilation: improves the skill of probability forecasts can be extended to deal with multi-model spatial forecasts improves the skill of seasonal precipitation forecasts in South America Three publications available at
