WP23: Impact models for impact predictions

Number: 
WP23
Months: 
3 - 38
WP leader: 
Met Office
Organizations: 
Met Office, Predictia, WU, IC3, UNIVLEEDS, SMHI, ULUND, Météo-France, CETaqua, EDF
Objectives: 

To further develop the complex impact models able to address the users’ needs and inform the case studies and the prototypes:

  • To develop a prototype operational workflow to use these models in S2D forecast mode;
  • To assess and improve their predictive skill by analysing hind casts of low- and high-end impact events (hi/lo discharge, crop yields, etc);
  • To develop optimal geographical forecasting units, as a function of model physics and stakeholder needs.
