Real-time seasonal forecasts with NorCPM1: https://bcpu.w.uib.no/seasonal-forecast/
- The seasonal forecasts are available online on our BCPU website and regularly updated every month. The Norwegian Climate Prediction Model (NorCPM) produces a new seasonal forecast once every month. The forecast consists of 60 climate simulations that span the likely range of seasonal outcomes. The simulations are started at the beginning of the first forecast month and integrated over six months. NorCPM is a new climate prediction model, developed by the Bjerknes Climate Prediction Unit (BCPU; https://bcpu.w.uib.no/), based on the Norwegian Earth System Model (NorESM). NorCPM can perform climate reanalyses and seasonal-to-decadal climate predictions. NorCPM assimilates sea surface temperature and T/S (temperature and salinity)-profile observations using the Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF).
