The simulated water vapour images generally focus on the upper troposphere. These charts can often indicate dynamical forcing mechanisms (responsible for cyclogenesis) or convective development (related to potential instability)...

These products display cloud-related fields from the model in a format that is very familiar to forecasters and that they are used to interpreting. They can easily be compared to actual satellite imagery...

Interval/period: N/A
These diagrams compare the Brier Skill Scores (BSS) and the Continuous Ranked Probability ...

Snow depth is computed using two model parameters - these represent the liquid water equivalent of snow lying on the ground, and the average density of that snow layer...

Soil moisture handling in the model is complex, and could be highlighted in many ways. Here a 'relativistic' approach is used for display, showing not absolute values, but instead...

Specific humidity gives an indication of the amount of moisture within a sample of air (in g of water vapour within a kg of air, g kg⁻¹). The chart shows the specific humidity at 1000 hPa and 925 hPa levels and...

These reliability diagrams show the ensemble spread of different global models for temperature ...

Sunshine for any point is assessed using the model representation of cloud layers to decide how much direct solar (shortwave) radiation reaches the Earth's surface...

The ECMWF seasonal forecasts (SEAS5) are produced every month with a 51-member ensemble at a ...
Interval/period: N/A
In the northern hemisphere the air rotates anti-clockwise around low contour centres and clockwise around the high contour centres. In the southern hemisphere the air rotates clockwise around low contour centres and ...

This is a time/longitude diagram (Hovmoller diagram) of 500 hPa or 1000 hPa mean height anomaly ...
Interval/period: N/A
The time-longitude diagram (Hovmoller diagram) shows a section of ensemble mean anomalies or ...

Total accumulated rainfall charts identify areas at greater risk of significant rainfall (or rain equivalent e.g.snowfall) but give no information regarding whether this occurs over a short or prolonged time period...

This display helps with the recognition of clouds of different layers, even when they overlap. Brighter colouring represents greater cloud cover. Cloud-free areas appear white while areas of full cloud cover at all levels appear dark grey (e.g. active fronts)...

The charts show the forecast value of the vertically integrated total column water (vapour + cloud water + cloud ice but with no precipitation included) in units of kg m⁻²...
