Cloudy forecast for weather satellite data.
IN THE NEWS FOCUS STORY “WEATHER forecasts slowly clearing up” (9 November, p. 734), R. Kerr nicely summarizes how the growing improvement in prediction is coming from a focus on “more computer power, the assimilation of radar observations, and more physically realistic models.” He emphasizes that better assimilation of satellite data is a key element of improved forecasting. Unfortunately, the...

Assimilation of GPS Radio Occultation Data for Numerical Weather Prediction
With the availability of approximately 4,000 radio occultation soundings per day within three hours of observation, COSMIC has the potential to contribute significantly to global and regional weather analysis and prediction. However, the basic radio occultation measurements (phase delays) are very different from traditional meteorological measurements (i.e., temperature, water vapor), and to ef...
متن کاملAdaptive tuning of numerical weather prediction models: Randomized GCV in three and four dimensional data assimilation
In variational data assimilation, optimal ingestion of the observational data and optimal use of prior physical and statistical information involve the choice of numerous weighting, smoothing and tuning parameters which control the ltering and merging of divers sources of information. Generally these weights must be obtained from a partial and imperfect understanding of various sources of error...
متن کاملFour-Dimensional Data Assimilation and Numerical Weather Prediction
All forecast models, whether they represent the state of the weather, the spread of a disease, or levels of economic activity, contain unknown parameters. These parameters may be the model’s initial conditions, its boundary conditions, or other tunable parameters which have to be determined. Four dimensional variational data assimilation (4D-Var) is a method of estimating this set of parameters...
