Rainfall data from ERA and the ECMWF PROVOST ensembles. (in collaboration
with ICTP)
A
preprocessing of rainfall data from ERA and the ECMWF PROVOST ensembles
(as included in the ECMWF CD-ROMs) has been performed, in order to allow
an easy comparison between rainfall anomalies from ERA and the ensemble-mean
in different years/seasons. From this dataset, a GRADS script produces
colour plots of the two fields for specified periods (year, season,
range of 10-day means) and regions (five longitude bands can be selected).
An exemple of the output is attached.
It
is planned to develop (by the end of the first year project) a web-based
interface to simple verification tools like this one, (to be accessed
from the PROMISE archive web page), and to apply them to other experimental
datasets (e.g. PRISM).ã
