  3. Introduction Regional climate change and climate variability have various impacts on the socio-economic activities. The impacts increase as the socio-economic activities become complex and active. One of important and challenging task in areas of meteorology is climate seasonal prediction. The advance climate seasonal prediction of droughts, monsoon etc. is now scientifically feasible. This can be enormously beneficial in national planning, e.g. in areas of water resources management, disaster management, and agricultural planning and food production.

  7. Construction of Multi-Model Ensemble • Linear statistical methods Prediction The climate system can be regarded as a dynamic nonlinear system • Nonlinear statistical methods, Artificial neural network methods

  8. Neural Network Model with Back-Propagation Input layer xk A linear combination of the neurons in the layer just before the output layer. The cost function is minimized by means of gradient descent. Whole vector of weight are updated according to the back propagation learning rule. The learning can be more efficient by including a momentum term, which refers to previous updating. Local minimum in the network can be avoided by introducing noise to the gradient descent updating rule, which in the case considered here is following Manhattan updating rule.

  13. Superensemble Based on Gauss-Jordan Elimination

  14. Construction of Superensemble Superensemble Forecast : Where, Fiis the ith model forecast , is the mean of the ithforecast over the training period, is the observed mean over the training period, are regression coefficients obtained by a minimization procedure during the training period, and N is the number of forecast models involved. For obtaining the weights, the covariance matrix is built with the seasonal cycle-removed anomaly ( ) , where, t and i, j denote time and ith - ,jth – forecast model, respectively. After calculation of the covariance matrix C, we can construct the weighting component for each grid point of each model. T.N. Krishnamurti et al., 1999, Science

  15. Gauss-Jordan Elimination A·x=B

  16. Superensemble Based on SVD

  17. MME System based on SVD Where, Fiis the ith model forecast, is the mean of the ith forecast over the training period, is the observed mean over the training period, ai are regression coefficients obtained by a minimization procedure during the training period, and N is the number of forecast models involved. For obtaining the weights, the covariance matrix is built with the seasonal cycle-removed anomaly (F’). Where, t and i, j denote time and ith- ,jth– forecast model, respectively. After construction of the covariance matrix C, weights are computed for each grid point of each model. Best Linear Unbiased Estimation (BLUE) This will be the solution-vector of smallest length |x|2 in the least-square sense. x which minimizes r ≡||C·x - b||. SVD realizes a completely orthogonal decomposition for any matrix. W.T.Yun, et al., 2003, J. Climate

  18. SVD realizes a completely orthogonal decomposition for any matrix A This will be the solution-vector of smallest length in the least-square sense. x which minimizes In the case of an underdetermined system, m<n, fewer equations than unknowns, SVD produces a solution whose values are smallest in the least-square sense. In the case of an overdetermined system, m>n, more equations than unknowns, SVD produces a solution that is the best approximation in the least-square sense. The SVD technique removes the singularity problem.

  22. Zeroing the Small Singular Values (1) The solution vector x obtained by zeroing the small wj’s and then using the equation (1) is better than SVD solution where the small wj’s are left nonzero. It may seem paradoxical that this can be so, since zeroing a singular value corresponds to throwing away one linear combination of the set of equations that we are trying to solve. The resolution of the paradox is that we are throwing away precisely a combination of equations that is corrupted by roundoff error. If we let the small wj’s nonzero, it usually makes the residual larger. We don’t know exactly what threshold to zero the small wj’s is acceptable. The condition number of a matrix is defined as the ratio of the largest (in magnitude) of the wj’s to the smallest of the wj’s. A matrix is singular if its condition number is infinite, and it is ill-conditioned if its condition number is too large.

  25. High Prediction Skill of Multi-Model Ensemble • Cancellation of bias among different models • Not directly influenced by the model’s systematic errors • Maximization of explained variance • Removes singularity in matrix • Best Linear Unbiased Estimator (BLUE) • Zeroing the small singular values wj

  26. Synthetic Multi Model Ensemble

  27. Synthetic Multi Model Ensemble The MME prediction skill during the forecast phase could be degraded if the training was executed with either a poorer analysis or poorer forecasts. This means that the prediction skills are improved when higher quality training data sets are deployed for the evaluation of the multi model bias statistics.

  32. FSU Unified Model Data Set • Atmospheric Global Spectral Model (T63L14)+Hamburg Ocean Model HOPE Starting from 31 December 1986 (to Dec. 2002), every 15 days three months forecasts were made with the four different versions of the coupled model. The multimodels are constructed using two cumulus parameterization schemes (modified Kuo’s scheme following Krishnamurti and Bedi, 1988; and Arakawa-Schubert type scheme following Grell, 1993) and two radiation parameterization schemes (an emissivity-abosrbtivity based radiative transfer algorithm following Chang 1979 and a band model for radiative transfer following Lacis and Hansen 1974) in the atmospheric model only. • KOR – Kuo type convection with Chang radiation computations • KNR – Kuo type convection with Lacis and Hansen radiation computation • AOR – Arakawa Schubert type convection with Chang radiation computations • ANR – Arakawa Schubert type convection with Lacis and Hansen radiation computation

  33. DEMETER Model Data Set • DEMETER (Development of a European Multi-Model Ensemble System for Seasonal to Inter-Annual Prediction) system comprises 7 global coupled ocean-atmosphere models. • CERFACS(European Centre for Research and Advanced Training in Scientific Computation, France),ECMWF(European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, International Organization),INGV(Istituto Nazionale de Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Italy), LODYC(Laboratoire d’Océanographie Dynamique et de Climatologie, France), Météo-France (Centre National de Recherches Météorologiques, Météo-France, France),Met Office(The Met Office, UK),MPI (Max-Planck Institut für Meteorologie, Germany) • The DEMETER hindcasts have been started from 1st February, 1st May, 1st August, and 1st November initial conditions. Each hindcast has been integrated for 6 months and comprises an ensemble of 9 members. • The multi-model synthetic ensemble/superensemble is formed by merging the 15 yr (1987-2001) ensemble hindcasts of the seven models, thus comprising 7x9 ensemble members.

  43. The Skill Score of Synthetic Forecasts

  44. Skill Score Metrics The Skill Metrics of Forecasts in a Deterministic Sense The AC is a measure of how well the phase of the forecast anomalies corresponds to the observed anomalies. The overbar denotes mean, and the summation can be either in space or in time, depending on whether spatial or temporal anomaly correlation is computed and G is the number of either grid points or time points. The RMSE is a measure of the average magnitude of the forecast error. Despite the fact AC is a good measure of phase error and doesn’t take bias into account, it is possible for a forecast with large errors to still have a good correlation coefficients. So, it is necessary to evaluate the average magnitude of the forecast errors.
