  1. Meso-γ 3D-Var Assimilation of Surface measurements: Impact on short-range high-resolution simulations Geneviève Jaubert, Ludovic Auger, Nathalie Colombon, Véronique Ducrocq, François Bouttier CNRM/GAME Météo-France and CNRS G.Jaubert Météo-France WSN05 5-9 september 2005 Toulouse France

  2. Introduction • Feasibility study for: • the assimilation part of the next operational NWP high-resolution system of Meteo-France AROME • high-resolution reanalyses of the field phase of cooperative experiments • Validation on the Gard torrential event (8-9 sept.2002) and the MAP IOP08 frontal case (20-21 oct.1999) G.Jaubert Météo-France WSN05 5-9 september 2005 Toulouse France

  3. Hybrid assimilation system Aladin 3D-Var Analysis First guess: large scale analysis (ECMWF or ARPEGE) Two domains: Mesoscale domain mesh 10 km Convective scale domain mesh: 2.5 km 1 analysis or 6-hour assimilation with 1 hour step Guess Increments Assimilation cycle Meso-NH model Meso-NH configuration: Two nested models mesh: 10 and 2.5 km 3 ice types Explicit convection at 2.5 km Meso-NH simulation G.Jaubert Météo-France WSN05 5-9 september 2005 Toulouse France

  5. Radiosounding data (60 messages) Temperature, humidity, wind, geopotential 06 UTC and 12 UTC Data used in the analyses MAP IOP8 frontal case Gard torrential event Mesoscale domain Convective scale domain Surface data (3000 observations) surface pressure 2m temperature and humidity, 10m wind hourly measurements G.Jaubert Météo-France WSN05 5-9 september 2005 Toulouse France

  6. Convective scale domain (mesh 2.5 km) ALADIN horizontal length scales reduced Larger variances at low levels 720 km The background error statistics Based on the background errors covariances used for the ALADIN analyses Mesoscale domain (mesh 10 km): ALADIN statistics except at low levels: larger variances except for the rotational wind  geostrophic balance reduced at low levels Vertical profiles of background errors stdev 2800 km G.Jaubert Météo-France WSN05 5-9 september 2005 Toulouse France

  13. Conclusion • The mesoscale assimilation improved: • the forecast of precipitation • the forecast of temperature in the first 3 km The assimilation of the surface measurements reduces the bias of temperature and humidity at low levels Improvement only if the background error covariance matrice is tuned to limit the contribution of the balanced part of the flow at low levels Better results if both the surface measurements and the altitude data are used G.Jaubert Météo-France WSN05 5-9 september 2005 Toulouse France
