Deutscher Wetterdienst FE 15 04.03.2010 VERSUS 2 Priority Project Meeting Langen Use of Feedback Files for Verification at DWD Ulrich Pflüger Deutscher Wetterdienst, Offenbach ulrich.pflueger@dwd.de Current Use of Feedback Files Some Examples of Verification Products Use of Feedback Files in VERSUS (Requirements)

Deutscher Wetterdienst FE 15 04.03.2010 VERSUS 2 Priority Project Meeting Langen Current Use of Feedback Files in COSMO EU/DE Routine Verification and Experiment Verification for each verification time (00, 06, 12, 18 UTC) one feedback file for all data (ASCII Format) feedback file contains Observation data Report meta data (coordinates, height, obs. time, flags set by data assimilation (active, passive, rejected, qc info, etc.) Observation deviations (COSMO DE): obs-an, obs-fc06, obs-fc12, obs- fc18 Observation deviations (COSMO EU): obs-an, obs-fc06, ………..., obs- fc48 building of feedback files inital version created by data assimilation (obs, obs-an) Model verification run calculates deviations of forecasts for the current verification time(obs-fc06, ……….., obs-fc48) Update of feedback file with forecasts devations

Deutscher Wetterdienst FE 15 04.03.2010 VERSUS 2 Priority Project Meeting Langen Current Use of Feedback Files (continued) feedback files are used for Upper Air Verification since more than 10 years now COSMO EU/DE routinely verified/monitored against radiosonde data (wind speed and direction, temp, rel.hum., geopotential) aircraft data (wind speed and direction, temp, rel.hum.(3 aircrafts)) windprofiler (wind speed and direction, temp. (some)Δ) vad winds (wind speed and direction) Arbitrary verification area (definition as a rectangle(λ,φ) or via station list) Selection of observation data according data usage and qc information Sorting in arbitrary vertical bins in Routine Verification Δp = 25 hPa below 800 hPa and 50 hPa above Calculation of forecast deviation statistics for selected forecast lead times for vertical bins or for standard pressure levels, plotting as vertical profile daily or monthly mean profiles of Mean Error (BIAS), RMSE Up to three runs can be compared in one plot Time Series of daily or monthly mean profiles

Deutscher Wetterdienst FE 15 04.03.2010 VERSUS 2 Priority Project Meeting Langen Use of Feedback Files in VERSUS Format and Content of Feedback Files: Format of COSMO Feedback Files will be changed from ASCII to NETCDF The format and content is documented in the „Feedback File Definition“ by A. Rhodin and C. Schraff with the new NETCDF files there will be probably one file for conventional observation data (Synop, RS, aircraft, windprof, etc.) and seperate files for mass data like radar, satellite etc. data content will remain the same (obs, obs-fcxx, data usage and qc info)

Deutscher Wetterdienst FE 15 04.03.2010 VERSUS 2 Priority Project Meeting Langen Use of Feedback Files in VERSUS (continued) Requirements to a VERSUS front-end respectively VERSUS itself: Usage of all kind of observations (Synop, RS, aircraft, windprof, vad, etc.) Loading of feedback files from routine and experimental runs together (probably from a directory structure) Internal data storage in VERSUS after the (VERSUS) step of assigning model data to obs data Probably the internal VERSUS data base has to be extended in order to keep additional data like data usage information, qc information, etc. Possibility to use qc information and data usage information for data stratification and conditional verification e.g. selection of observations with certain level of quality Arbitrary verification area (at least via a stationlist) Possibility to calculate scores for any verification periods (day, sev. days, month, year)

Deutscher Wetterdienst FE 15 04.03.2010 VERSUS 2 Priority Project Meeting Langen Use of Feedback Files in VERSUS (continued) Requirements to a VERSUS front-end respectively VERSUS itself: Time series of scores (daily, monthly), also for vertical profiles of scores Operation of VERSUS via GUI and in Batch Mode GUI Selection of runs Selection of period Selection of verification area/stations ( posibility to use same set of observations in case of comparison between experiments) Selection between bias corrected and original reported observation values Selection of data stratification (conditions) and scores etc. batch mode (necessary for operational runs and experimental runs) Selection of runs, period, etc. via a control file
