Abstract
ABSTRACT Developed for short‐term (0–48 h) wind power forecasting purposes, high‐resolution meteorological forecasts for Eastern Canada are available from Environment Canada's Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) model configured on a limited area (GEM‐LAM). This paper uses 3 years of forecast data from this model for the region of North Cape (Prince Edward Island, Canada). Although the model resolution is relatively high (2.5 km), statistical analysis and site inspection reveal that the model does not have a sufficiently refined grid to properly represent the meteorological phenomena over this complex coastal site. To cope with such representation error, a generalized Geophysic Model Output Statistics (GMOS) module is developed and applied to reduce the forecast error of the NWP forecasts. GMOS differs from other Model Output Statistics (MOS) that are widely used by meteorological centres in the following aspects: (i) GMOS takes into account the surrounding geophysical parameters such as surface roughness, terrain height, etc., along with wind direction; (ii) GMOS can be directly applied for model output correction without any training. Compared with other methods, GMOS using a multiple grid point approach improves the GEM‐LAM predictions root mean squared error by 1–5% for all time horizons and most meteorological conditions. Also, the topographic signature of the forecast error (uneven directional distribution of the forecast error related to the surface characteristics) due to misrepresentation issues is significantly reduced. The NWP forecasts combined with GMOS outperform the persistence model from a 2 h horizon, instead of 3 h using MOS. Finally, GMOS is applied and validated at two other sites located in New Brunswick, Canada. Similar improvements on the forecasts were observed, thus showing the general applicability of GMOS.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
