基于S2S模式的长江中下游夏季降水次季节预报评估与诊断

Subseasonal prediction evaluation and diagnosis of summer precipitation in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River based on S2S models

  • 摘要: 长江中下游地区是我国夏季降水最为集中的区域之一,提高其次季节预报水平对防汛减灾具有重要意义。本文基于次季节至季节(Subseasonal to Seasonal,S2S)计划中中国气象局(CMA)、欧洲中期天气预报中心(ECMWF)、英国气象局(UKMO)三套模式集合预报资料,系统评估了单模式及多模式集合系统对长江中下游夏季降水1—6候的预报技巧及误差时空结构特征,进一步定量分析了各模式对夏季季节内振荡(BSISO)的预报能力及其与降水预报技巧之间的关系。结果表明:(1) 在确定性预报方面,各模式均表现为集合平均优于控制预报,预报技巧随时效延长逐渐衰减;ECMWF整体最优、UKMO次之、CMA相对偏弱。多模式集合平均在第3候时效以后表现出更稳定且更高的技巧,显示出较高的预报延伸潜力。(2) 概率预报评估显示,ECMWF在不同降水阈值下均表现最好,且预报技巧随降水阈值升高呈现先增后减特征;多模式集合在所有时效和所有阈值下均显著优于气候态预报和单模式预报。Brier Score (BS)评分分解表明,单模式对极端降水较中部阈值降水表现出更高的可靠性但更低的分辨能力,多模式集合相较于单模式在可靠性与分辨能力两方面均有明显改进。(3) 各模式对BSISO信号的预报技巧与其降水预报技巧具有显著正相关,相关系数达0.9以上,BSISO活动是该区域次季节降水可预报性的关键来源。研究结果有望为各模式在长江中下游夏季降水次季节预报业务中的应用以及预报订正提供参考。

     

    Abstract: The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are one of the regions with the most concentrated summer precipitation in China, and improving subseasonal prediction skills in this region is of great importance for flood prevention and disaster mitigation. Based on ensemble forecast data from three models (ECMWF, CMA, and UKMO) in the S2S project, this study systematically evaluates the forecasting skill and error structure of both single-model and multi-model ensemble systems for summer precipitation in the middle and lower Yangtze River region from lead pentad 1 to 6. It further quantitatively analyzes the model ability to forecast BSISO and its relationship with precipitation forecasting skill. The results indicate: (1) In deterministic forecasting, all models show that ensemble mean forecasts outperform control forecasts, with forecast skill gradually decreasing as lead time extends. ECMWF is the best overall, followed by UKMO, and CMA performs relatively weaker. The multi-model ensemble shows more stable and higher skill after the 3rd lead pentad, demonstrating greater forecast extension potential. (2) Probability forecast evaluation shows that ECMWF performs the best across all precipitation thresholds, with forecast skill increasing at the beginning and then decreasing as the threshold rises. The multi-model ensemble significantly outperforms both the climate baseline and single-model forecasts across all lead times and thresholds. Brier score decomposition reveals that single-model forecasts for extreme high/low precipitation thresholds exhibit higher reliability but lower resolution compared to mid-range thresholds. In contrast, multi-model ensembles show significant improvements in both reliability and resolution. (3) The skill of models in forecasting BSISO signals is significantly positively correlated with their precipitation forecasting skill, showing correlation coefficients of greater than 0.9 and indicating that BSISO activity is a key source of subseasonal predictability for precipitation over this region. This study provides references for the application of models in subseasonal precipitation forecasting for the middle and lower Yangtze River, as well as for forecast calibration associated studies.
