Verification of NCEP-GFS model forecast versus NCEP/CPC RFE over DRCONGO from October to December 2008 : NOAA Project Report
Kalaki Kasongo Ado - NOAA, 2009Introduction: Model verification is an essential part of a Weather Prediction system. It is a helpful knowledge to enhance the forecaster’s assessment in Weather bulletin production. The aim of this study is to compare the global Forecast system (GFS) model rainfall prediction accumulated for 24 hours and averaged over October, November and December 2008 with the African Rain Fall Estimate (RFE 2.0) (Love et al.,2002) over DRCongo and the neighboring areas (from 15S to 6N latitudes and from 10E to 32E longitudes) fig.0.

Understanding the predictabilty and seasonal rainfall variability patterns during OND and JFM over DRCongo
The objective of this work is thus to enhance an understanding on the regional and global patterns that may contribute to the knowledge of the variability and predictability of OND and JFM rains season over DRC for a better prediction of the rains season and also to improve the DRC seasonal models for a better decisions makers, and also assist potentials users on their needs.

Climate Variability and Predictability (CLIVAR), 1496. Challenges and opportunities in research on climate, weather, water and environment : research aspects of an Enhanced Climate; Weather, Water and Environmental Prediction Framework
Advances in the geophysical sciences and computing have led to a number of opportunities for WMO. First, the distinction across timescales from weather to climate prediction is becoming more blurred; second the incorporation of chemical, hydrological and biological processes into weather and climate models will allow a much broader range of environmental parameters to be forecast, including air quality, flooding, sand and dust storms, changes in vegetation etc. Third, many of the applications and impacts of weather and climate share a common underlying scientific basis.
