A scheme for verifying the spatial structure of extremes in numerical weather prediction: Exemplified for precipitation

Abstract This paper describes a novel scheme for assessing the ability of a numerical weather prediction (NWP) model to forecast the horizontal spatial structure of local extremes, for example, when comparing accumulated precipitation to a corresponding observed field. Both local maxima and minima a...
