Outline
MotivationSystem structureGRAPES and its High Resolution assimi.-pred. cycleSevere weather integrated forecast toolsSome tests and real time runningUnsolved issues and plan for further development
MotivationCombine the high resolution NWP products ( GRAPES) and nowcasting technologies (SWIFT) to improve severe weather forecasts within 6 hoursProvide a new tool for the weather services for Olympic Games 2008 BeijingPromote the further development of meso NWP technologies driven by expanded application of NWP
Global-Regional Assimilation and PrEdiction SystemSchematic description of GRAPESChinese new generation NWP systemsVariational data assimilation: 3DVar-available, 4DVar-being developed;Non-hydrostatic model with options of global and regional configurationsUsed in various applications ranging from severe weather events, general circulation modeling, environmental issues,

Extrapolation and forecasting algorithms
TREC winds are used for extrapolation within 1 hourTREC winds are also used to find the model levels on which the NWP wind fits the movement of CS ( 500hpa or higher in most cases ) Forecast of CS with weighting mean of NWP and TREC Statistical approach with NWP products as predictors
