Areal distribution and precipitation–altitude relationship of heavy short-term precipitation in the Czech Republic in the warm part of the year

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented an analysis of heavy short-term precipitation for the warm part of the year in the Czech Republic (CR) for the years 2002-2007 with a horizontal resolution of 1 km and a temporal resolution of one hour.
Journal ArticleDOI

Probabilistic precipitation nowcasting based on an extrapolation of radar reflectivity and an ensemble approach

TL;DR: In this article, a new method for the probabilistic nowcasting of instantaneous rain rates (ENS) based on the ensemble technique and extrapolation along Lagrangian trajectories of current radar reflectivity is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nowcasting of deep convective clouds and heavy precipitation: Comparison study between NWP model simulation and extrapolation

TL;DR: In this article, an evaluation of convective cloud forecasts performed with the numerical weather prediction (NWP) model COSMO and extrapolation of cloud fields is presented using observed data derived from the geostationary satellite Meteosat Second Generation (MSG).
Journal ArticleDOI

Ensemble forecasts of road surface temperatures

TL;DR: In this article, a new ensemble technique for road surface temperature (RST) forecasting using an energy balance and heat conduction model is described. But the ensemble spread is too small and underestimates the uncertainty in the RST forecast, due to errors in the rain and snow forecast by the numerical weather prediction (NWP) model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combined assimilation of screen‐level observations and radar‐derived precipitation for soil moisture analysis

TL;DR: In this article, a methodology is proposed in order to combine information from radar precipitation with other observations (e.g., screen-level temperature and relative humidity) in a soil analysis scheme based on an extended Kalman filter.
