Comparison 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 کاملMorphing Ensemble Kalman Filters
A new type of ensemble filter is proposed, which combines an ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) with the ideas of morphing and registration from image processing. This results in filters suitable for nonlinear problems whose solutions exhibit moving coherent features, such as thin interfaces in wildfire modeling. The ensemble members are represented as the composition of one common state with a spat...
متن کاملImplications of the Form of the Ensemble Transformation in the Ensemble Square Root Filters
This paper considers implications of different forms of the ensemble transformation in the ensemble square root filters (ESRFs) for the performance of ESRF-based data assimilation systems. It highlights the importance of using mean-preserving solutions for the ensemble transform matrix (ETM). The paper shows that an arbitrary mean-preserving ETM can be represented as a product of the symmetric ...
متن کاملLocalization techniques for ensemble transform Kalman filters∗
Ensemble Kalman filter techniques are widely used to assimilate observations into dynamical models. The dimension of phase is typically much larger than the number of ensemble members which leads to inaccurate results in the computed covariance matrices. These inaccuracies lead, among others, to spurious long range correlations which can be eliminated by Schur-product-based localization techniq...
