Figura 2 COSMO-LEPS integration<br />

domain<br />

The COSMO-LEPS system is running every day<br />

regularly at ECMWF as a Time-Critical<br />

Application.<br />

In figure 2 the integration domain is represented.<br />

Since January 2006, COSMO-LEPS is composed<br />

by 16 members (previously it was 10) with the<br />

same 10 km horizontal resolution. The vertical<br />

discretization is on 40 levels again since January<br />

2006. The forecast length is 132 hours starting<br />

from the 12 UTC analysis time. For more details<br />

on COSMO LEPS status see the presentation by<br />

Pierre Eckert on this issue.<br />

5. COSMO Long-Term Perspectives and Priority <strong>Project</strong>s<br />

The Long Term Perspectives defined last year were:<br />

1. Develop and improve ensemble prediction systems based on LM (including cloud<br />

resolving scale)<br />

2. Assimilation of ‘all’ available observations, including radars and satellites, at high<br />

resolution including also slowly-changing information (soil moisture, vegetation state,<br />

etc)<br />
