  34. Comparison of composite Genesis potential parameter (GPPx10-5) and Genesis potential parameter of Cyclonic Storm over the Bay of Bengal of 15-19 October 2000. (T=2.5). The initial low-pressure system formed over Central Bay of Bengal and intensified into depression (T.No. 1.5) on 0000 UTC of 15 October. The system persisted over the Bay of Bengal for more than four days and traveled more than 700 km (14.5/88.5 to 14.5/82.0), but maximum intensity never exceeded T.No. 2.5. Finally it dissipated over the Sea.

  35. Statistical Tropical Cyclone Intensity Prediction (SCIP) Model 62 sample cases of Tropical Cyclones (TCs) those formed over the Bay of Bengal during the period 1981 to 2000. Fifteen independent cyclones were used to test the model those formed over the Bay of Bengal during the period 2000 to 2007. The predictors: (a) Persistence: (i) Initial storm intensity (ISI) (ii) Previous 12 hours change in the intensity (IC12) (b) Thermodynamical factors : (i) Storm motion speed (SMS) (ii) Sea surface temperature (SST) (c) Dynamical factors : (i) Initial storm latitude position (ISL) (ii) Vertical wind shear (850-200) hPa averaged along storm track (VWS) (iii) Vorticity at 850 hPa (V850) (iv) Divergence at 200 hPa (D200) Natural Hazards (2007) ; J. Earth Sys. Sci. (2008), Geofizika (2008)

  36. Formulation of the model: The model is developed using multiple linear regression technique y = ao+ a1x1+ a2x2+ ……….+ anxn Where y is the dependent variable (predictant) and x1, x2, …...…. xn are independent variables (predictors). The regression coefficients a1, a2, …...…. an are determined using a large data set (62 cyclones). The SCIP model estimates changes of intensity at 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 and 72 hours. Six separate regression analyses are carried out for forecast interval 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 and 72 hour. 12 hours intensity change by multiple linear regression technique is defined as: dvt = ao+ a1 IC12+ a2SMS+a3VWS+ a4D200+ a5V850+a6ISL+ a7SST+ a8ISI for t = forecast hour 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 and 72

Threat score is defined as number of correct forecasts divided by total forecast. The threat score ranges between 0 and 1

  46. Near Future Plan: Now-casting • and mesoscale forecasting • Real-time radar (DWR) mosaic creation • Operation of ARPS model at 3 km resolution with • assimilation of DWR data for local severe weather • City forecast for Delhi as required for the Commonwealth • Games 2010 • Implementation of dynamical Fog prediction model for visibility forecasting at the major airports of India.

  47. Near Future Plan:Regional Models • WRF model with 3 nested domains (at the resolution of 27 km, 9 km and 3 km). The nested model at the 3 km resolution would be operated at the Regional/State Met Centres at 6 hours interval with 3 DVAR data assimilation. • MM5 model with 2 nested domains (at the resolution of 27 km and 9 km) at 12 hours interval with 3 DVAR data assimilation. • For Cyclone Track Prediction, 72 hours forecast from Quasi Lagrangian Model (QLM) at 40 km resolution at six hours interval; WRF (NMM) at 27 km resolution with assimilation package of Grid Statistical Interpolation (GSI). • For Cyclone track and intensity prediction: multimodel ensemble technique and application of dynamical statistical approach for 72 hours forecasts, forecast would be updated at 12 hours interval.
