It reviewed the implementation of the recommendations made by the previous review team in 2010 at the end of HIRLAM-A. The HIRLAM cooperation has a long history and is now well organised. As a result the Review Team made few comments concerning HIRLAM in isolation from the wider collaboration with ALADIN. The review team also met forecasters in most of HIRLAM centers. Benefits of using regional high resolution model for short range forecasts, as compared to ECMWF global forecasts, is no longer questioned.

    Design of the 30-year NCEP CFSRR T382L64 Global Reanalysis and T126L64 Seasonal Reforecast Project (1979-2009) Suru Saha and Hua-Lu Pan, EMC/NCEP With Input from Stephen Lord, Mark Iredell, Shrinivas Moorthi, David Behringer, Ken Mitchell, Bob Kistler, Jack Woollen, Huug van den Dool, Catherine Thiaw and others Operational Daily CFS • 2 9-month coupled forecasts at 0000GMT • (1) GR2 (d-3) atmospheric initial condition • (2) Avg [GR2(d-3),GR2(d-4)] • T62L28S2 – MOM3 • GODAS (d-7) oceanic initial condition 2004 CFS Reforecasts The CFS includes a comprehensive set of retrospective runs that are used to calibrate and evaluate the skill of its forecasts. Each run is a full 9-month integration. The retrospective period covers all 12 calendar months in the 24 years from 1981 to 2004. Runs are initiated from 15 initial conditions that span each month, amounting to a total of 4320 runs. Since each run is a 9-month integration, the CFS was run for an equivalent of 3240 yr! An upgrade to the coupled atmosphere-ocean-seaice-land NCEP Climate Forecast System (CFS) is being planned for Jan 2010. Involves improvements to all data assimilation components of the CFS: • the atmosphere with the new NCEP Gridded Statistical Interpolation Scheme (GSI) and major improvements to the physics and dynamics of operational NCEP Global Forecast System (GFS) • the ocean and ice with the NCEP Global Ocean Data Assimilation System, (GODAS) and a new GFDL MOM4 Ocean Model • the land with the NCEP Global Land Data Assimilation System, (GLDAS) and a new NCEP Noah Land model For a new Climate Forecast System (CFS) implementation Two essential components: A new Reanalysis of the atmosphere, ocean, sea-ice and land over the 31-year period (1979-2009) is required to provide consistent initial conditions for: A complete Reforecast of the new CFS over the 28-year period (1982-2009), in order to provide stable calibration and skill estimates of the new system, for operational seasonal prediction at NCEP There are 4 differences with the earlier two NCEP Global Reanalysis efforts: 1.

It is for the first time that such a high-resolution global model is being run operationally for monsoon weather forecast. A detailed validation of the model therefore is essential. The validation of mean monsoon rainfall for the season and individual months indicates a tendency for wet bias over the land region in all the forecast lead time. The probability distribution of forecast rainfall shows an overestimation (underestimation) of rainfall for the lighter (heavy) categories.

    Anzeiger Abt. I (2007) 138: 3–15 U¨ ber die wissenschaftlichen Beziehungen von Hans Ertel und Heinrich Ficker Von Wilfried Schro¨der (Vorgelegt in der Sitzung der math.-nat. Klasse am 15. November 2007 durch das w. M. Helmut Moritz) 1. Vorbemerkung Im Gegensatz zum englischen Sprachraum befindet sich die Aufarbeitung der Geschichte der geophysikalischen Disziplinen in Deutschland erst im Aufbau. Das ist bedauerlich, denn gerade hier wurden viele Grundlagen der heutigen Meteorologie und Geophysik gelegt. So kann es keinen Zweifel geben, dass gerade auch das Berliner Meteorologische Institut zur Zeit der Wirksamkeit von 1 HEINRICH [VON] FICKER sowie HANS ERTEL eine internationale Leitfunktion hatte. Die Wiederkehr des 50. Todesjahres von Aka- demiemitglied HEINRICH FICKER mag Anlass sein, einige Linien in der Geschichte der Beziehung dieses Wissenschaftlers zu ziehen. Vornehmlich wird man sich dabei auf HANS ERTEL beziehen, dessen Entdeckung FICKER selbst als seine wohl bedeutendste wissenschaft- liche Leistung bezeichnete. Von einem Versuch muss indes ge- sprochen werden, weil viele Unterlagen aus der Zeit der beiden Gelehrten nicht mehr verfu¨gbar sind, so dass auf manche Linie indirekt geschlossen werden muss. 1 Je nach dem verschiedenen Gebrauch der ehemaligen Adelspra¨dikate in Deutschland und OOsterreich.€ 4 W. Schro¨der 2. Die Berliner Zeit Die meteorologische Forschung hat im Berliner Raum eine lange Tradition. Die Gru¨ndung des ,,Preußischen Meteorologischen Instituts‘‘ im Jahre 1847 bildet dabei in organisatorischer Hinsicht nur den Beginn. 2.1. Entwicklungslinien Auf WILHELM MAHLMANN (1812–1848) folgte HEINRICH WILHELM DOVE (1803–1879), der die meteorologische Arbeit in vielfa¨ltiger Weise aktivieren sollte. Eine Neuorientierung des Instituts erfolgte dann durch den Physiker WILHELM VON BEZOLD (1837–1907).
