3 Project goal Improve model performance by assimilating remotely sensed (AMSR-E) soil moisture into the Bureau’s numerical weather prediction models. –Develop a soil moisture product from AMSR-E observations –Assimilate this into LAPS, and investigate the impact on forecast skill
4
NAFE’06 Planning Workshop 4 Verification of AMSR-E derived soil moisture products in an Australian context –Near surface soil moisture –Spatial scale similar to AMSR-E (~50 x 50 km) –Sampling frequency close to daily –Understanding of finer spatial variation, diurnal cycle, and soil moisture profile dynamics
5
NAFE’06 Planning Workshop 5 Verification of 1-D LAPS simulation for NAFE region, with and without AMSR data: –Latent and sensible heat flux, atmospheric temperature, rainfall, soil moisture –Spatial scale similar to AMSR-E (~50 x 50 km) –High sampling frequency (hourly)
