Gauge-referenced hourly rainfall nowcasting: Comparison of direct radar-to-point and field-first forecast routes
Abstract
Software supporting "Gauge-referenced hourly rainfall nowcasting: Comparison of direct radar-to-point and field-first forecast routes" by Jaehee Jung and Joon-Woo Roh. The package provides Direct R2P, gauge-supervised forecast-field CNN readouts, pySTEPS and adapted exPreCast workflows, evaluation, figure reproduction, aggregate verification tables and synthetic tests. Version 1.3.0 aligns the public outputs with the Atmospheric Research manuscript and Supplementary Data 1 version 1.3.0. Fig. S1a rain-rate CSI-M now averages the thresholds 1, 5, 10 and 20 mm h−1. The release also updates Table S1 presentation and maps aggregate CSVs to the current 16-sheet workbook. Training, inference and numerical verification-helper code are unchanged from version 1.2.1. Public renderers use the bundled CSVs. The package includes observation-defined rainfall-episode peak amount and timing verification, episode-duration summaries and exPreCast CNN 3 × 3 versus 5 × 5 patch-size sensitivity. Figure references follow the current manuscript (Figures 1–10 and Supplementary Figures S1–S3). Supplementary Data 1 is archived separately at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.23269186. Station-resolved verification data and selected gauge observations are not bundled with this software. Reproducing Figures 1, 7 and 8 requires authorized user-supplied inputs. Complete raw KMA archives, full prediction arrays, model weights and credentials are not included. See docs/PAPER_OUTPUT_REPRODUCIBILITY.md and docs/DATA_POLICY.md.
