VLab Forum Members,
This is a reminder that the March 2022 VLab Forum will occur today,
March 24th at 3:35 – 4:35pm (EDT). The talk features a presentation
by Zhan Zhang titled "Advancement of Hurricane Analysis and
Forecast System: 2021 Real-Time Experiments". We hope you can attend.
To participate in the forum, please register
for the webinar.
Abstract:
Hurricane Analysis and Forecast System (HAFS) is a community-based
ocean-coupled high resolution earth modeling system, promoting
research to operation to research (R2O2R) transitions for
cutting-edge research on hurricane dynamics and physics, advanced
data assimilation techniques, and air-sea interaction processes.
HAFS aims to become the next generation of NOAA’s operational
hurricane forecast system, replacing HWRF and HMON in 2023. Four
configurations of real-time HAFS experiments were conducted in the
2021 Atlantic hurricane season to compare the track and intensity
forecast guidance with the current operational HWRF. This talk will
describe the configurations used in 2021 real time experiments, and
present verification comparisons between HAFS experiments and HWRF,
and the plan for operational implementation.
