Abstract

Enhancements of NCAR ANC system using NRL, ASAP and MM5 data are presented. Potential benefits of using TAMDAR data are also discussed. It is found that both NRL and ASAP data reduce FAR for ANC storm initiation forecasts. Improvements in ANC performance by using MM5 model derived instability parameters are also noticed. Both NRL and ASAP data have been put into the real time ANC system deployed over Illinois/Indiana region during summer 2005 based on this study. More analysis will be needed before MM5 model and TAMDAR data can be used in the real time ANC system.
