2. Re-forecasts:
The JMA re-forecasts dataset is a "fixed" dataset which means that the re-forecasts are produced once from a "frozen" version of the model and are used for a number of years to calibrate real-time forecast. The JMA re-forecasts consist of a 5-member ensemble running three times a month from 1981 to 2010. The start dates correspond to 1st / 11th and 21st of each month at 00Z minus 12 hours (28 February instead of 29 February). here is the complete list of re-forecast start dates:
10/20/31 January - 10/20/28 February - 10/20/31 March - 10/20/30 April - 10/20/31 May - 10/20/30 June - 10/20/31 July - 10/20/31 August - 10/20/30 September - 10/20/31 October - 10/20/30 November and 10/20/31 December 1981-2010
The S2S database contains the complete JMA re-forecast dataset.
As for the other models, JMA re-forecasts are archived in the S2S database with 2 date attributes:
- hdate which corresponds to the actual starting date of the re-forecast
- date which correspond tot he ModelVersionDate.Since the JMA re-forecasts are "fixed" re-forecasts this ModelVersiondate is the same for all the re-forecasts and equal to 20140304. This variable will change when a new version of the JMA model for extended-range forecasts will be implemented.
