Spatial spread‐skill relationship in terms of agreement scales for precipitation forecasts in a convection‐allowing ensemble
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Verification of precipitation is one of the major issues in evaluating numerical weather prediction. In this study, a recently developed neighbourhood‐based method in terms of agreement scales is applied to characterize the scale‐dependent spatial spread‐skill relationship of precipitation forecasts in a 3 km convection‐allowing ensemble prediction system ( EPS ) over the Yangtze‐Huaihe river basin of China. Thirty cases during the Meiyu season of 2013 are classified into two weather regimes, large coverage ( LC ) and small coverage ( SC ), based on the precipitation fractional coverage. Overall, precipitation distributions for these two weather regimes are reasonably forecast by the EPS . The results show that the spatial spread‐skill relationship depends highly on the weather regime. The spatial spread‐skill relationship under SC is poorer and shows more diurnal variation compared to that under LC . In addition, this article extends the neighbourhood‐based method to investigate the relative influence of precipitation intensity and placement on the spatial spread‐skill relationship. With increasing precipitation threshold, the relative impact of precipitation intensity on the relationship gradually decreases, and the influence of precipitation placement becomes dominant.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
