Optimal observations for variational data assimilation
An important aspect of Ocean state estimation is the design of an observing system that allows the efficient study of climate aspects in the ocean. A solution of the design problem is presented here in terms of optimal observations that emerge as nondimensionalized singular vectors of the modified data resolution matrix. The actual computation is feasible only for scalar quantities in the limit...
متن کاملAustralian Root Zone Soil Moisture: Assimilation of Remote Sensing Observations
Knowledge of temporal and spatial variation in root zone soil moisture content across Australia is vital for a wide range of environmental and socio-economic activities. However, such information is not currently available, due to an inability to monitor with ground-based point measurement techniques at an appropriate spatial resolution, and the uncertainty associated with land surface model pr...
متن کاملVariational Assimilation of Remote Sensing Data for Land Surface Hydrologic Applications
Soil moisture plays a major role in the global hydrologic cycle. Most importantly, soil moisture controls the partitioning of available energy at the land surface into latent and sensible heat fluxes. We investigate the feasibility of estimating large-scale soil moisture profiles and related land surface variables from low-frequency (L-band) passive microwave remote sensing observations using w...
متن کاملA penalized four-dimensional variational data assimilation method for reducing forecast error related to adaptive observations
Four-dimensional variational (4D-Var) data assimilation method is used to find the optimal initial conditions by minimizing a cost function in which background information and observations are provided as the input of the cost function. The optimized initial conditions based on background error covariance matrix and observations improve the forecast. The targeted observations determined by usin...
متن کاملA review of operational methods of variational and ensemble-variational data assimilation: Ensemble-variational data assimilation
Variational and ensemble methods have been developed separately by various research and development groups and each brings its own benefits to data assimilation. In the last decade or so, various ways have been developed to combine these methods, especially with the aims of improving the background-error covariance matrices and of improving efficiency. The field has become confusing, even to ma...
