Ulrich Damrath: Fuzzy and standard verification for COSMO-EU and COSMO-DE, COSMO GM, Rome September 2011 Results of verification against radiosondes 2010/2011 COSMO-EU: amplitude of temperature bias between troposphere and above has been reduced reduced bias and rmse of gepotential at tropopause and above slightly reduced error in wind speed at upper troposphere COSMO-DE: already since 2009 boundary layer too warm (except analysis 00 UTC) slighty increased humidity bias at 00 UTC but reduced bias at 12 UTC Modification of radiosonde measurements lead also to the change of RH bias (better results for noon, worse for midnight)

Ulrich Damrath: Fuzzy and standard verification for COSMO-EU and COSMO-DE, COSMO GM, Rome September 2011 Summary concerning Fuzzy-Verification The application of Fuzzy-verification for 3h-intervals allows a more detailed insight on the differences between the quality of precipitation forecast of CDE and CEU. The results got by MeteoSwiss could be reproduces at least in a qualitative way. Fractions Skill Score and ETS upscaling give for special cases notable different results. But the aggregated results are relatively good correlated. The effect of LHN is especially for the whole region of Germany and for runs between sun rise and sun set relatively clear pronounced. Also for parts of Germany this can be stated – but not with the same degree as for the whole region. For some forecast intervals the effect of threee hour old boundar values of the CEU can be seen.
