The Hybrid Local Ensemble Transform Kalman Filter
Hybrid data assimilation methods combine elements of ensemble Kalman filters (EnKF) and variational methods. While most approaches have focused on augmenting an operational variational system with dynamic error covariance information from an EnKF [1][2][4][5][8], we take the opposite perspective of augmenting an operational EnKF with information from a simple 3D-Variational (3D-Var) method [7]....
متن کاملComparison of Statistical Dynamical, Square Root and Ensemble Kalman Filters
We present a statistical dynamical Kalman filter and compare its performance to deterministic ensemble square root and stochastic ensemble Kalman filters for error covariance modeling with applications to data assimilation. Our studies compare assimilation and error growth in barotropic flows during a period in 1979 in which several large scale atmospheric blocking regime transitions occurred i...
متن کاملA deterministic formulation of the ensemble Kalman filter: an alternative to ensemble square root filters
The use of perturbed observations in the traditional ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) results in a suboptimal filter behaviour, particularly for small ensembles. In this work, we propose a simple modification to the traditional EnKF that results in matching the analysed error covariance given by Kalman filter in cases when the correction is small; without perturbed observations. The proposed filte...
متن کاملEnsemble Kalman filter with the unscented transform
A modification scheme to the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) is introduced based on the concept of the unscented transform (Julier et al., 2000; Julier and Uhlmann, 2004), which therefore will be called the ensemble unscented Kalman filter (EnUKF) in this work. When the error distribution of the analysis is symmetric (not necessarily Gaussian), it can be shown that, compared to the ordinary EnKF,...
متن کاملA Hybrid Ensemble Kalman Filter / 3d-variational Analysis Scheme
Given the chaotic nature of the atmosphere, ensemble forecasting is increasingly being embraced as an approach for providing probabilistic weather forecasts. The best method for determining a set of initial conditions for ensemble forecasts is still being debated. We have found that there are appealing characteristics to ensembles of forecasts generated by the perturbed observation (PO) method ...
