Abstract

Weather systems and forecast errors: a two-way linkage

1. Weather systems to forecast errors?

  • How well can models represent and predict specific weather systems?
  • Examples: tropical cyclones, extratropical cyclones, Rossby waves, warm conveyor belts, ...

  • Examples: systematic studies, case study

3. Summary, challenges & questions
