China and Victoria of Australia.The experimental results show that the forecasting rules discovered by the system are very competitive to human experts.The forecasting accuracy rates are 86.4% and 78% of the two data sets respectively展开更多

According to statistics from the United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction, the annual mean economic loss caused by meteorological disasters accounts for 3%-6% of the total amount of global GDP. China is a country that has been one of the most severely influenced by natural disasters.展开更多

The main points of meteorological service＇ were summed up to im- prove the ability of meteorological forecast, thereby meeting the new requirements of the public for meteorological cause. The results showed that the annual average temperature in various Counties was in the range of 13.6-14.5 ℃, which was slight- ly higher than that in an average year and lower than that in the past year; the average annual precipitation of various counties ranged from 376.9 to 592.1 mm, which was slightly less than those in an average year and the past year; the aver- age sunshine duration across the city was 2 026 h, which was less than that in an average year and slightly more than that in the past year. The main climatic events included fog and haze, heavy snowfall, thunderstorm, gale, hail, high temperature, heavy rain and rainy sparse sunlight, which produced a negative impact on the agri- culture, tourism, transportation and people＇s daily life. This is the focus of future services.展开更多

However, due to the imperfect precipitation simulation/forecast of these models, the demand for considering riming particles in cloud microphysical schemes in these models is increasing. This study employed the latest versions of global atmospheric reanalysis data (ERA5), the satellite retrieval data of the Global Precipitation Observation Program (GPM),and station precipitation observations to explore the impacts of adding graupel to the cloud microphysical scheme in the China Meteorological Administration-Global Forecast System (CMA-GFS) on summer regional precipitation simulations in four Chinese climate zones. The results verify that the new graupel scheme can enable CMA-GFS to decently predict global graupel distribution, especially in tropical and midlatitude regions. The addition of graupel in the cloud microphysics increases the precipitation simulation in North China, while that in Southwest China is weakened and dispersed. Moreover, graupel scheme increases the precipitation simulations of almost all magnitudes.The increase in light rain is obvious, and the absolute value of heavy rain is strengthened. This may be because graupel quickly melts into rain after falling out of the zero-temperature layer due to its large mass and fast falling speed, increasing surface precipitation. In summary, the addition of graupel in the cloud microphysical scheme can improve CMA-GFS’s underestimation of strong precipitation.展开更多
