  1. Short term plans of activities related to NWP at UGM Zurich 20-23 Sept. 2005 Massimo Ferri UFFICIO GENERALE PER LA METEOROLOGIA Di1a: 1

  2. Summary • Computer resources • Collaborations • HSAF UFFICIO GENERALE PER LA METEOROLOGIA Dia: 2

  3. Computer resources • To mantain a time critical application at ECMWF based on 3d-Var PSAS D.A., HRM as regional model and Lokal Model as high resolution model (B.C. from IFS) • To implement a Linux cluster facility for NWP application ( current state: benchmarking of LM ) UFFICIO GENERALE PER LA METEOROLOGIA Dia: 3

  4. Collaborations • Brasilian Institutes (INMET and Navy) cooperate with CNMCA in the devolepment of the 3d-var PSAS D.A. • Israeli-Italian cooperation on Modeling System for Urban Air Pollution • Cooperation with PNRA in the development of a forecast system for the antarctica region (research activity in the framework of IPY) UFFICIO GENERALE PER LA METEOROLOGIA Dia: 4

  5. HSAF • The New H-SAF for Hydrology In recent years, the interest of the hydrological community for using satellite data has rapidly increased because of improvements of satellite data quality and of performance of hydrological models including their capability to assimilate observational data. • H-SAF Background Eumetsat started to study how to give operational support to the hydrological community. A consultation among EUMETSAT Member and Cooperating States showed that the best solution to achieve such a support was to establish a new SAF.

  6. HSAF H-SAF Objectives HSAF has • to provide new satellite-derived products: • precipitation (liquid, solid, rate, cumulate) • soil moisture (at surface, in the roots region) • snow parameters (cover, melting conditions, water equivalent); • to perform independent validation of the usefulness of the new products for hydrological applications.

  7. H-SAF Consortium Italy (Aeronautica Militare - Ufficio Generale per la Meteorologia) has been selected to lead the HSAF Consortium of the following Eumetsat members and cooperating states.

  8. HSAF H-SAF Precipitation Products Italy with other countries will produce, in real time, precipitation observation maps over Europe with a resolution of 10km and best accuracy of 10%. The rain rate directly retrieved from Polar orbiting satellite data will be combined with the Geostationary satellite Data ( Meteosat Second Generation). Below an example of rain rate retrieval from polar orbiting satellite.

  9. HSAF H-SAF Soil Moisture Products Austria with other countries and ECMWF will produce soil moisture maps over Europe every 36 hours with a resolution of about 25km. The product will be generated directly from polar orbiting satellite radar data and via numerical assimilation. Below an example of monthly mean soil moisture from polar orbiting satellite data.

  10. HSAF H-SAF Snow Products Finland with other Countries will produce snow maps over Europe with a resolution of 2 – 10 km, giving information on snow coverage, depth, status and water equivalent content. Below an example of snow depth retrieval form polar orbiting satellite data merged with in situ observations.

  11. HSAF H-SAF Validation Studies Countries responsible for impact studies and validation will test the HSAF products versus Hydrological models over specific basins as in the map below.

  12. SCIENTIFIC USERS Institutes in charge of hydrological validation (led by POLAND) Other R&D Institutes Dedicated links Various links Coordination ITALY as Host Precipitation products observed and forecast ITALY HSAF H-SAF System Architecture HSAF system architecture takes advantage of input data form both Polar orbiting and geostationary satellites PROCESSING CENTRES INPUT DATA H-SAF Archive Satellites by direct read-out U-MARF Client Satellites via EUMETCast U-MARF Soil moisture at surface layer AUSTRIA Local databases Products from other SAF’s Soil moisture in roots region ECMWF Ancillary data locally available Snow parameters in flat land, forests FINLAND NWP products and climatology Snow parameters in mountain areas TURKEY

  13. HSAF H-SAF Product Distribution Scheme HSAF products will be disseminated world wide in pictorial and numerical format via Eumetcast (Eumetsat satellite broadcast service) and via international meteorological networks as standard World Weather Organisation messages. Domestic dissemination will be responsibility of participating Countries.
