History National Meteorological Center (NMC) is subordinated to China Meteorological Administration and was established on 1 March, 1950. The Central Meteorological Observatory was its predecessor. Staff Members 640 persons Dust storm development by satellite monitoring Started on 19 March, 2002, severe dust storm occurred in NW, north and NE of China. The source of this process was from middle and west part of Mongolia and middle and west part of Inner Mongolia. The duty storm continued to spread southeast on the morning of 20 March, 2002 Continued to develop eastward on the afternoon of 20 March Operational System The Summer Rainfall Anomaly Percentage Forecast (left) and Observation (right) in 1998 Atmosphere General Circulation Model(AGCM) T63L16 Based on NMC’s medium range NWP model(originated from ECMWF1988) Modification improvements: Introduced reference atmosphere, improved calculation accuracy of horizontal pressure grad. force Improve numerical method to keep conservation of mass during long time integration Adopted Semi Lagrangian method to improve the calculation of horizontal and vertical transport of moisture so as to eliminate the occurrence of negative moisture and pseudo precipitation The incorporation of Morcrett radiation scheme and K-distribution radiation scheme The introduction of Dickenson’s BATS model and Sun’s three-level snow cover model in land process Improved gravitational wave drag scheme under the unstable atmospheric condition in boundary layer scheme, and the modified the free convection scheme of boundary layer turbulent diffusion Adopted Gregory mass flux scheme in the convection parameterization Developed parallel code for high performance computer Other improvements in model codes Ocean General Circulation Model Global OGCM: L30T63, coupled with T63L16 AGCM Pacific circulation model: 0.5~1.5x2 20 levels, coupled with statistic atmosphere model (SVD) Indian-Pacific ocean model (IPOM): 1/3~1x1.5, 31 levels Atmosphere
