The Sensitivity of Heavy Precipitation to Horizontal Resolution, Domain Size, and Rain Rate Assimilation: Case Studies with a Convection-Permitting Model

Figure 13

Intensity-scale diagrams show FSS of hourly precipitation from E210 with radar observation as truth, (a) 6th hour forecast (valid 1200 UTC 9 January 2011) and (b) 12th hour forecast (valid 18 UTC 9 January 2011); unit is %. Grid value with color shading shows the FSS. The abscissa and the ordinate indicate the threshold value and the spatial scale, respectively.
