Presentation transcript:

The lower boundary condition of the atmosphere, such as SST, soil moisture and snow cover often have a longer memory than weather itself. Land surface processes play an important role in weather and climate prediction. In order to improve our understanding of land surface-atmosphere interaction on different time scales, we need to improve our understanding of the land surface hydrological & energy cycles. Also to further improve weather forecast & climate prediction, we need more accurate land initial conditions. Motivation & Background 1 Land Surface Memory & its impacts Summary & Future Work An accurate and homogeneous global lower boundary condition is very important for weather and climate predictions. The preliminary results show that the CPC global (near real time) soil moisture dataset can reasonably reproduce the annual cycle & interannual variability of the observed soil moisture, when compared to Illinois observations and GRACE satellite data. The simulated land surface hydrologic cycle and extreme events also look realistic. Future Work Need more detailed data validation & analysis. Add a simple cold season physics in near future. Model comparisons (e.g. With RR, Noah LSM and VIC LSM etc. ). Demonstrate more detailed non-local impacts of soil moisture & prediction experiments etc. Reference: Fan, Y., H. van den Dool, 2004: Climate Prediction Center global monthly soil moisture data set at 0.5 degree resolution for 1948 to present.

Model & Data The maximum & minimum land surface soil moisture and the months of these extremes take place. Seasonal variation of the land surface water recharge or discharge. Monsoon is the dominant feature. Auto correlations of the global land surface soil moisture,which show that cold seasons and dry areas often have longer memory than those in warm seasons and wet areas. Non-local correlations of the land surface soil moisture (southeast China or Bengal) and the global land surface precipitation and air temperature show the non-local impacts of the land surface soil moisture. The soil moisture budget (Huang et al 1996) over an area A: Where W(t) is soil water content P(t) precipitation E(t) evapotranspiration R(t) net streamflow divergence G(t) net groundwater loss Forcing Data: -CPC Monthly Global Precipitation Over Land -Monthly Global Reanalysis/CDAS 2m Temperature Data Coverage: 56+ years (1948-present) The 29 th CDPW, Madison, Wisconsin, Oct , CPC soil moisture monitor & prediction activities – Drought & flood monitoring – Empirical forecast tools (Constructed Analog) – GFS forecast & climate prediction Recent CPC global soil moisture status Simulated extreme hydrological events Difference of March & September soil moisture climatology, which shows two kinds of climates and annual range of land surface soil water variability. The annual cycle (right) & anomalies (left) of the observed (black) and simulated (green) top 1 meter column soil moisture in north, central & south Illinois from 1984 to Local correlations of the land surface soil moisture and the land surface air temperature in next month show local impacts of the soil moisture on the land surface air temperature.
