| Abstract | This study presents the ForTraCC (Forecasting and Tracking of Cloud Cluster) technique using satellite data. ForTraCC is an algorithm for tracking and forecast the physical characteristic of mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) through its whole life cycle using the thermal channel information (10.8 ìm) of geostationary. The cloud cluster detection method is based on a threshold temperature; the morphological and radiative parameters of each MCS are evaluated and tracking trough the life cycle based on overlapping areas of MCSs in successive images. The forecast is built taking into account the life cycle history of each MCS, generating a virtual image for the next 120 minutes. The extrapolation is based on the possible displacement of MCS (considering the position of the center of mass of the cloud cluster in previous time steps) and its size evolution. The ForTraCC technique using GOES 12 data is an operational tool available on line Machado and Laurent (2004) and Vila and Machado (2004) have introduce the basis for the ForTraCC. This extrapolation model uses satellite images to track and forecast mesoscale cloud organization. ForTraCC is an operational model, running at CPTEC and available on line at the CPTEC in the following web URL http://moingatu.cptec.inpe.br/paginas/fortracc/fortracc.php. ForTraCC uses GOES 10 Images, each 15 minutes, to produce extrapolation up to 120 minutes. The objective of this study is to present the ForTraCC models. |
