Context SIRTA-ReOBS

•  Important interannual and seasonnal variabilities •  Important dispersion of the models •  Low frequency variability and extremes badly

represented by ensemble

Source: Terray and Boé, CRG, 2013

è Strong uncertainties at regional scale, which is an important scale in term of impacts

è At this scale, we must use observations to improve our

understanding of the processes that create this variability

Stations Météo-France 50km

15km Extraction sat.

WCRP Climate Symposium 2014 Recommendation #12:

“To enhance the value of existing observation records for climate research and applications,

operational and research space agencies should put a sustained effort into re-processing and re-analyzing existing archived data to produce

temporally homogeneous products to study climate variability and change”

Since 1999: an atmospheric observatory in a peri-urban area, 20 km in the South-West of Paris Ø  150 instruments: in situ, active and passive

remote-sensing Ø  5300 files/day Ø  3Go of data /day Ø  250 scientific publications

Topics: climate, air quality, atmospheric processes, renewable energy…

Challenge – have a dataset that : ² Involves different time-scale: from the decades to

the diurnal cycle ² Is high quality in order to be able to detect low

magnitude signals ² Allows multi-parameter studies

Quality control for all variables: §  0 = OK §  1 = extreme value or incomplete

hour §  2 = out of the physical limits §  3 = missing data

Uncertainty for all variables: §  Instrumental resolution §  Each time-step, value of the

temporal standard deviation during the current hour
