Introduction

• Normally use BSS and ROCSS to work with probabilistic data

• Running RMSE, ACC and MSSS deterministically on ensemble mean

• Developed/modified scripts for skill scores in NCAR Command Language (NCL) – share & cross validate?

• Work not complete – will report via ENSEMBLES website

Introduction – ROCSS malaria modelling

Tier-2 malaria runs - ROC Skill Scores Above Median Event

DEMETER driven LMM. Areas of high interannual variability were selected and persisted forecast skill was removed from the scores.

ENSEMBLES –stream 2Scores:

• ACC: anomaly correlation coefficients

• Addresses the question: How well did the forecast anomalies correspond to the observed anomalies?

• RMSE: Root mean square errors

• Answers the question: What is the average magnitude of the forecast errors?

• MSSS: Mean square skill score

Summary & Way Forward?

• Experience in BSS and ROCSS (probabilistic)

• Question non probabilistic nature/use of RMSE,

ACC and MSSS for EPS verification

• All data should come with sets of verification plots

e.g. ECMWF DEMETERhttp://www.ecmwf.int/research/demeter/d/charts/verification

• Library of scripts? Or portal to where they exsist
