Download or read book Completing the Forecast written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-10-09 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uncertainty is a fundamental characteristic of weather, seasonal climate, and hydrological prediction, and no forecast is complete without a description of its uncertainty. Effective communication of uncertainty helps people better understand the likelihood of a particular event and improves their ability to make decisions based on the forecast. Nonetheless, for decades, users of these forecasts have been conditioned to receive incomplete information about uncertainty. They have become used to single-valued (deterministic) forecasts (e.g., "the high temperature will be 70 degrees Farenheit 9 days from now") and applied their own experience in determining how much confidence to place in the forecast. Most forecast products from the public and private sectors, including those from the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration's National Weather Service, continue this deterministic legacy. Fortunately, the National Weather Service and others in the prediction community have recognized the need to view uncertainty as a fundamental part of forecasts. By partnering with other segments of the community to understand user needs, generate relevant and rich informational products, and utilize effective communication vehicles, the National Weather Service can take a leading role in the transition to widespread, effective incorporation of uncertainty information into predictions. "Completing the Forecast" makes recommendations to the National Weather Service and the broader prediction community on how to make this transition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weather forecasting of extreme weather events has evolved with the use of various techniques in an attempt to improve the forecast skill (e.g. multi/single model ensemble, data assimilation and high-resolution techniques). Despite the noted improvements, inaccuracies caused by random and systematic errors are a continuous topic for research. Statistical post-processing techniques that are computationally inexpensive play a useful role to address this issue and contribute to the reduction of prediction errors. In this research, statistical post-processing methods using numerical weather prediction models and single-model ensemble techniques are implemented to improve the prediction of storms (e.g. tropical storm, thunderstorm, rain/wind events) that have impacted the northeast United States. The research is focused on the improvement of prediction accuracy of storm wind speed which is the main driving force behind tree failure and interruptions in the power grid in NE U.S. that can last from hours to days depending on the storm severity. The methods developed and described in this dissertation are applicable to any geographic location and not constrained for NE U.S., as long as there is a long record of historical storms in both observations and model simulations.

Download or read book Fair Weather written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-05-14 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of evolving U.S. policy have led to three sectors providing weather servicesâ€"NOAA (primarily the National Weather Service [NWS]), academic institutions, and private companies. This three-sector system has produced a scope and diversity of weather services in the United States second to none. However, rapid scientific and technological change is changing the capabilities of the sectors and creating occasional friction. Fair Weather: Effective Partnerships in Weather and Climate Services examines the roles of the three sectors in providing weather and climate services, the barriers to interaction among the sectors, and the impact of scientific and technological advances on the weather enterprise. Readers from all three sectors will be interested in the analysis and recommendations provided in Fair Weather.
