abstract = "The precipitation is predicted by using a weighted combination of
different convective parameterization schemes. The best prediction
estimation is obtained by calculating the appropriated weights for
the ensemble of parameterizations. The weight identification
process is a type of inverse problem: parameter estimation. The
inverse solution is computed by minimizing the functional of
square difference between observations (measured precipitation)
and precipitation calculated by a mathematical model (BRAMS
model). The optimization problem is solved by a new
meta-heuristic: Firefly algorithm with predation (FAP), where the
best set for ensemble weights is found. The method is applied to
the BRAMS (Brazilian developments on the Regional Atmospheric
Model System) over South America during January 2006.",
