Preliminary Results from Assimilating Rain Rate Derived from Satellite

  Inadequate specification of divergence and moisture in the initial conditions of numerical models results in the well-documented spinup problem.Observational studies indicate that latent heat release can be a key ingredient in the intensification of extratropical cyclones.As a result,the assimilation of rain rates during the early stages of a numerical simulation results in improved forecasts of the intensity and precipitation patterns associated with extratropical cyclones.Rawin observation is the important observation to record the precipitation; fortunately,the precipitation information could be quantitatively estimated from geostationary IR observation,Microwave observation and Radar observation.Here,a technique is described to assimilate the satellite derived rain rate data into a mesoscale model.Compared to the control simulation,assimilation simulation gives rise to a dramatic improvement in forecasts of precipitation patterns and geopotential height fields when assimilating the rain rate.
