Our activity in QPF for Poland
• Selection and description of experimental
days: 3 May, 4 May, 10 June, 9 August
2005
• QPF sensitivity experiment (model 3.19
run for 21 experiments, model 4.0 run for
6 experiments, 4 days).
• Post-processing and statistics.
• Results and conclusions.
Experimental Model Domain
• Domain size (in nodes - longitude, latitude): ( 1:200 ,
1:200 ),
• subdomain for Poland: ( 31:151 , 51:151 ).
• Domain size (in rotated coordinates - longitude, latitude):
( 0.0 : 12.4375 , -4.1 : 8.3375 ),
• sudomain for Poland: ( 1.875 : 9.375 , -0.975 : 5.275 ).
• Domain size (in rotated coordinates - lower left, upper
right corner): ( (0.0,-4.1) , (12.4375,8.3375) ),
• subdomain for Poland: ( (1.875,-0.975) , (9.375,5.275) )
• Horizontal step (degrees): 0.0625 (~7km),
• 40 levels.
• Rotated North Pole coordinates (longitude, latitude): 170.0 , 40.0.
Selection of cases.
The precipitation over Poland is overpredicted.
The overestimation is much bigger for heavy
precipitation especially in summer.The major
criteria used to choosing the events were the
overestimation of maximum values or false
prediction of precipitation occurrence. The four
precipitation events were selected , dominated
by grid scale precipitation .
