Institute of Heavy Rain, Wuhan, CMA Introduction Radiosonde station shade: 1h rainfall from 20BST to 21BST 20July 1998

Institute of Heavy Rain, Wuhan, CMA Only by conventional observation net and traditional initialization procedure, it is very difficult to get the accurate initial field needed in the meso-scale model, especially the meso-scale systems vital to torrential rain generation. One way improving the initial field of the meso-scale model is assimilating non-traditional data into meso-scale model with variational method. In meso- or micro-scale studies, the assimilation of Doppler radar data, which have relatively high spatiotemporal resolution and contain adequate meso-scale cloud-water, precipitation and wind information, is significant to the improvements of meso-scale initial field. Introduction

Institute of Heavy Rain, Wuhan, CMA 1DVAR system One-dimensional Variational Assimilation System of Radar Derived Rainfall Developed at WHIHR for the research of radar derived rainfall data assimilation Focused on initialization and forecasting of heavy rain using a regional numerical model The physics includes horizontal diffusion,large-scale condensation and evaporation and Betts convective adjustment parameterization scheme. Spatial distributions of the variables are on a E-grid with 37km horizontal resolution and 16 levels in the vertical. The vertical coordinate isη

Institute of Heavy Rain, Wuhan, CMA 1DVAR system Where X and X b denote the optimum values and background values of the model prognostic variables; R(X) and R o denote the observation operator logarithm of precipitation and the radar-derived rainfall respectively. B is the error covariance matrix of the background. is the standard deviation of the observation error. The 1DVAR seeks optimum values of numerical model prognostic variables by minimizing the following one-dimensional cost function : 1DVAR method Background term Observation term

Institute of Heavy Rain, Wuhan, CMA The prescribed results show that in the simulation of an extremely heavy rain on July 8 in middle Yangtze river, the assimilation of retrieved wind from Wuhan and Yichang Doppler radar by 3DVAR greatly improve the initial field which is consistent with model and conducive for strong precipitation generation both in thermodynamics and dynamics with the results that the model reproduces 24h accumulated and hourly rainfall close to observation in the middle Yangtze River. It proves that effective usage of retrieved wind data from Doppler radar can make positive contributions to numerical simulation and forecasting.

Institute of Heavy Rain, Wuhan, CMA 4DVAR system Grapes-3dvar system MM5V1 and Adjoint-model Assimilation System. The main physical processes include nonhydrostatic equilibrium scheme, Grell cumulus parameterization shceme, Blackadar high-resolution planetary boundary scheme, simple ice explicit moisture scheme, simple cooling atmosphere radiation scheme and time-dependent flowing-in/out lateral boundary condition. NCEP data, regular observations and simple-Doppler radar data. The initial time is 00h 23th June,2004. The total integration time is 24h. The center of model is located at (113ºE,29ºN). The number of horizontal grid is 61×61. The grid length is 15km.

Institute of Heavy Rain, Wuhan, CMA A study on 4-dimensional variational assimilation of single-Doppler radar wind data ---a heavy rainfall in middle reach of the Yangtze River Scheme I: Sigh the initial field made by the model when using NCEP data and regular observations as A field. Scheme II: First, the model analysis field of the initial time serves as the model first-guess field. Then the regular observations of 06h is input into assimilation model. And finally by adjusting the first- guess field through restrict conditions we have the optimal initial field as B field. Scheme III: We use radar data retrieved with the variational method to replace the value of A field so as to obtain C field that includes radar data, Scheme IV: It is similar with scheme II. The regular observations and retrieved radar data of 06h is input into assimilation model. And finally by adjusting the first-guess field through restrict conditions we have the optimal initial field as D field.

Institute of Heavy Rain, Wuhan, CMASummary The established 1DVAR assimilation system can effectively assimilate radar-derived rainfall data and the heavy rain forecast can be improved by adjusting humidity profiles of the initial field. After retrieved wind from Doppler radar has been assimilated by Grapes_3dvar system, more meso-scale information is presented in the initial wind field, humidity field and potential height field in such a manner that rainfall prediction can be greatly improved. Effectively using radar wind field information in 4DVAR assimilation system can improve rain belt simulation.

Institute of Heavy Rain, Wuhan, CMA Future work Three-dimensional variational assimilation of radar retrieved wind field data in heavy rain forecasts should be studied on the basis of Doppler radar wind field data collected as much as possible. Real-time forecasting experiments using retrieved wind data from Doppler radar should be conducted step by step in the light of meso-scale operational forecasting model AREM and Grapes_3dvar system. Direct variational assimilation of radial velocity of Doppler radar should be studied. On the basis of LAPS developed by FSL, several kinds of local observation data such as radar data, satellite data, wind profiler data and etc, should be combined into meso- scale numerical models (AREM, GRAPES, MM5) in order to improve the initial field and better rainfall forecast.
