Abstract

The first part of this paper illustrates medium range forecasts over the monsoon region. Using different spectral resolutions, T21, T31. T42, T63 and Tl06 in the FSU global spectral model, the performance of the monsoon forecasts up to 5 days have been examined, starting with the same initial database. The higher resolution models show more realistic precipitation rates and the divergent wind starting from the initial input that was obtained at the end of the normal mode initialization process. The model forecasts using higher resolutions show substantial improvement in their quality.

 

The second part of this paper addresses a new approach for the prediction of low modes up to periods of the order of a month.
