Abstract We present a detailed evaluation of the turbulence forecast product EDP (Eddy Dissipation Parameter) used at Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD). It is based on parameterization scheme TURBDIFF which operational within ICON (Icosahedral Nonhydrostatic) numerical weather prediction model operationally by DWD. For aviation purposes, procedure provides cubic root eddy dissipation rate ε 1/3 as a...
