Description of the model changes
01-09-2020
...
Extension of the reforecast period from 1991-2010 to 1991-2016.
01-08-2020
...
Nine additional parameters allowing computing MJO indices were added to the KMA outputs starting from 1 August 2020 for the real-time forecasts and from 1 September for the on-the-fly reforecasts:
- Snow Fall water equivalent
- Surface net solar radiation
- Surface net thermal radiation
- Surface solar radiation downwards
- Surface thermal radiation downwards
- Top net thermal radiation
- Sea surface temperature
- Total Cloud Cover
- Specific humidity (on pressure levels)

In reference to Tennant(2013), the soil moisture content(SMC) and surface temperature perturbations were added to KMA’s Global Ensemble system. It should improve predictive performance of the surface variations that have a smaller spread than the upper level one. Together with SST perturbation, it helps improving the spread of surface temperature and moisture.
