When was the current long-range forecast system implemented? |
System Name : GloSea5GC2 |
---|---|
Is it a coupled forecast system? | Yes |
Is it a Tier-2 forecast system? | No |
Atmospheric model resolution |
UM: N216L85 |
Ocean model (if applicable) |
NEMO: |
Source of atmospheric initial conditions | ERA-interim for the preiod of 1991-2010 and KMA NWP operational analyses |
Source of ocean initial conditions | Global Ocean Data Assimilation System (NEMOVAR) from Met Office |
If Tier-2, what is the source of SST predictions? | N/A |
Hindcast Period | 1991-2016 |
Ensemble size for the hindcasts | 12 members (from 4 different start dates) |
How is the hindcast ensemble configured? | Lagged approach, 3 members per start date on the 1st, 9th, 17th, and 25th, of each calendar month. All 3 member share the same initial conditions and differ only due to schemes to represent model uncertainties |
Ensemble size for the forecast | 42 |
How is the forecast ensemble configured? | Lagged approach, 2 members per each date |
Length of forecasts | 6 months |
Data Format | GRIB 2 |
What is the latest date predicted anomalies for the next month/season become available? | 13th of the month |
How are the forecast anomalies constructed? | Departures from the model climate estimated by the hindcast integrations |
