The results showed that the predicted values of heavy precipitation based on ECMWF model were smaller than the observed values,while the predicted values of light precipitation were larger than the observed values. The probability matching correction method could be used to effectively correct systematic errors of model forecast,and the correction effect of all grades of precipitation（ especially for rainstorm） was good.The shorter the period of validity was,the better the correction effect was. The correction method has a good application effect in the interpretation of model precipitation products,and can provide better security services for agricultural production.展开更多
