SSM/I
Surface Winds Statistics (algorithms and sensors comparison)
and Shared Processing Project Operational
Algorithm (SPP)
1OMBNN3 is used at NCEP operationally
since April 1998
Global Statistics (Bias & RMSE); +/- 1 hour temporal
window and +/- 50 km spatial window
were used to create buoy SSM/I collocations.
All statistics are calculated using
real time buoy data which are not quality controlled!!!
Monthly Statistics since October
2000
Algorithms comparison:
Wind Speed Bias (dashed curves) in m/sec &
Wind Speed RMSE (solid curves) in m/sec
Red - OMBNN3, Blue - SPP.

Sensors comparison:
Systematic (bias) - dashed curves and random (standard deviation)
errors for
F13 - red, F14 - brown, and F15 - blue curves
