Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of precipitation forecasting, and in particular to an extended-range precipitation forecasting system based on MJO. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, unprecedented attention has been paid to climate prediction research both domestically and internationally. This research not only holds significant social and economic significance but also scientific value. It is currently a major international research hotspot and has become a priority area of scientific development for countries at the end of this century and the beginning of the next. Short-term climate prediction has a solid scientific foundation, and current short-term climate prediction systems based on this foundation have demonstrated considerable predictive skill. However, current short-term climate prediction systems, whether relying on empirical statistical methods, climate model predictions, or dynamic or statistical downscaling, suffer from a lack of regional specificity, short prediction times, low accuracy, slow computational speed, and, most importantly, a single prediction target and unstable prediction results.

[0003] The MJO, a quasi-periodic oscillation in the tropics lasting 30-60 days, is a key factor in extended-range forecasts by modulating the monsoon system, mid-latitude circulation, and extreme weather events. The MJO, along with the monsoon intraseasonal oscillation (MISO), synergistically influences the precipitation distribution of the East Asian summer monsoon. Existing weather forecast systems fail to accurately predict precipitation, necessitating the development of an MJO-based extended-range precipitation forecast system. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an extended-range precipitation forecast system based on the MJO to solve the technical problem that existing precipitation forecast systems cannot consider the relevant factors that extend the impact of rainfall.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0006] An extended-range precipitation forecast system based on the MJO includes a sub-seasonal forecast unit, a monthly forecast unit, an extended-range forecast unit, an automatic data acquisition unit, a data storage unit, and a login unit. The sub-seasonal forecast unit, the monthly forecast unit, the extended-range forecast unit, the automatic data acquisition unit, and the login unit are all connected to the data storage unit. The sub-seasonal forecast unit is used to predict precipitation by quarter based on historical data and generate corresponding icons. The monthly forecast unit is used to predict precipitation by month based on historical data and generate corresponding icons. The extended-range forecast unit is used for MJO precipitation rate forecast, CFSv2 daily forecast, and MJO dynamic similarity forecast. The automatic data acquisition unit is used to automatically download CFSv2.0 model forecast data for the next 50 days at time 0 every day. The data storage unit is used to store and manage data. The login unit is used for customers to log in and set permissions.

[0007] Furthermore, the automatic data acquisition unit is used to download the MJO index of the NOAA Climate Prediction Center by season. The data period is from 1979 to the day of data download, and data is provided once every season. The downloaded data includes prate, temperature, wind speed and height field elements, and the downloaded data grid interval is 0.9375-1.0.

[0008] Furthermore, the data storage unit includes a download data storage module, a prediction data storage module and a user data storage module. The download data storage module is used to store the original data downloaded by the automatic data acquisition unit. The prediction data storage module is used to store the predicted icon data and perform data time marking. The label is stored according to the predicted time point. The user data storage module is used to store the user's login information and the user's personal information data.

[0009] Furthermore, the extended-range forecast unit includes an MJO precipitation rate forecast module, a CFSv2 daily forecast module and an MJO dynamic similarity forecast module. The MJO precipitation rate forecast module is used to forecast the MJO precipitation rate, and generates corresponding spatial maps and trend maps based on historical data to display data from similar years. The CFSv2 daily forecast module is used to generate corresponding climate field forecast charts based on specific locations and selected circulation fields. The MJO dynamic similarity forecast module is used to calculate and find similar years of historical MJO index, calculate the daily precipitation distribution in similar years, and use a synthetic method to obtain a precipitation forecast for the next 50 days.

[0010] Furthermore, the CFSv2 daily forecast module has set area option box, circulation field option box, start date, forecast time period, calculation type and graph type option box. When the forecast is completed and the corresponding icon is good, the user can choose to download it in txt or bin format.

[0011] Furthermore, the MJO dynamic similarity forecast module is equipped with regional option boxes, reporting start date and time period line options to generate a spatial map. It can also generate a trend map to display similar annual fee data and generate a bar chart. The height of the bar each day represents the amount of precipitation. The MJO dynamic similarity forecast module can also make site rainfall forecasts based on the set sites.

[0012] Furthermore, in the MJO dynamic similarity forecast module, click the MJO dynamic similarity menu to enter the forecast interface, set the parameters of the region, start date, forecast period, calculation type, and image type, click query to obtain the daily precipitation forecast for each station in the region or river basin. When switching to the daily precipitation forecast and verification of a single station, select a station in the drop-down box to automatically output the 45-day precipitation forecast result for the station. If it is a forecast backcalculation, the actual precipitation will be displayed at the same time.

[0013] Furthermore, in the MJO dynamic similarity forecast module, when forecasting precipitation trends for a certain period, select any period and click on the statistical chart on the interface. The system will automatically output the precipitation trend forecast results for that period. When outputting the precipitation process forecast test, switch to the precipitation trend test. The system will automatically output the average daily precipitation in the entire area during the selected forecast period.

[0014] Furthermore, in the sub-seasonal prediction unit, when outputting forecasts for years with high MJO correlation, select MJO correlation in the options, click on the distribution map, and the system will automatically output the precipitation synthesis results for years with high correlation. When outputting the 45-day daily precipitation forecast verification for a station, switch to the trend verification option, select a station, and the system will automatically output the 45-day precipitation trend and actual situation for that station.

[0015] The present invention has the following beneficial effects due to the adoption of the above technical solution:

[0016] The present invention extends the effective forecast period and is easier to capture in climate models. The phase is strongly correlated with regional precipitation and can be used as a forecast anchor point. It is capable of multi-scale coupling. The MJO couples the tropical weather scale with the mid-latitude weather system, and can simultaneously analyze local heavy rains and regional persistent drought and flood trends. It also optimizes data assimilation and ensemble forecasts, has the potential for early warning of extreme events, and cross-regional climate linkage predictions. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
