Günther Haase Tomas Landelius Daniel Michelson Generation of superobservations (WP2)

Günther HaaseColchester, 9 January Objectives While reflectivity data are regularly used in operational forecasting procedure much efforts should be devoted to improve the use of Doppler data. This WP seeks to increase the exploitation of these information following two complementary strategies. On one hand Doppler data will be processed in order to be use in NWP models (i.e. define a super- observation product), on the other extraction of information from Doppler data (VAD or multiple Doppler wind retrieving) will improve the understanding of weather phenomena and will give a detailed wind field to be compared with NWP models output and meso-scale analysis. Identify the limitations for improving clear air retrievals of wind and boundary layer processes at the operational weather radar frequencies used in Europe.
