| The Special Observation Period
(SOP1), part of the HyMeX campaign (Hydrological cycle in the Mediterranean
Experiments, 5 September–6 November 2012), was dedicated to heavy
precipitation events and flash floods in the western Mediterranean, and three
Italian hydro-meteorological monitoring sites were identified:
Liguria–Tuscany, northeastern Italy and central Italy. The extraordinary
deployment of advanced instrumentation, including instrumented aircrafts, and
the use of several different operational weather forecast models, including
hydrological models and marine models, allowed an unprecedented monitoring
and analysis of high-impact weather events around the Italian
hydro-meteorological sites. This activity has seen strong collaboration
between the Italian scientific and operational communities. In this paper an
overview of the Italian organization during SOP1
is provided, and selected Intensive Observation Periods (IOPs) are described.
A significant event for each Italian target area is chosen for this analysis:
IOP2 (12–13 September 2012) in northeastern Italy, IOP13 (15–16 October
2012) in central Italy and IOP19 (3–5 November 2012) in Liguria and Tuscany.
For each IOP the meteorological characteristics, together with special
observations and weather forecasts, are analyzed with the aim of highlighting
strengths and weaknesses of the forecast modeling systems, including the
hydrological impacts. The usefulness of having different weather forecast
operational chains characterized by different numerical weather prediction
models and/or different model set up or initial conditions is finally shown
for one of the events (IOP19). |
