Sampling strategies and square root analysis schemes for the EnKF 1
نویسنده
چکیده
The Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF), in its native formulation as originally introduced by Evensen (1994) and Burgers et al. (1998), has used pure Monte Carlo sampling when generating the initial ensemble, the model noise and the measurement perturbations. This has been a useful approach since it has made it very easy to interpret and understand the method (see Evensen, 2003). Further, sampling errors can be reduced by an increase of the ensemble size.

A 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 کامل6.2 Estimation of Model Errors in the Local Ensemble Transform Kalman Filter
Ensemble Kalman Filters (EnKF) have been shown to be more accurate than 3D-Var in data assimilation simulations under the assumption of a perfect model. However, in reality, the forecast model has deficiencies and does not represent the atmospheric behavior precisely due to lack of resolution, approximate parameterizations of subgrid scale physical processes, and numerical dispersion. For assim...
متن کاملAn Iterative EnKF for Strongly Nonlinear Systems
The study considers an iterative formulation of the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) for strongly nonlinear systems in the perfect-model framework. In the first part, a scheme is introduced that is similar to the ensemble randomized maximal likelihood (EnRML) filter by Gu and Oliver. The two new elements in the scheme are the use of the ensemble square root filter instead of the traditional (pertu...
متن کاملData assimilation of incoherent scatter radar observation into a one-dimensional midlatitude ionospheric model by applying ensemble Kalman filter
[1] In this paper, electron densities during 25–28 September 2000 observed by the Millstone Hill incoherent scatter radar (ISR) are assimilated into a one-dimensional midlatitude ionospheric theoretical model by using an ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) technique. It is found that (1) the derived vertical correlation coefficients of electron density show obvious altitude dependence. These variatio...
متن کاملApplication and comparison of Kalman filters for coastal ocean problems: An experiment with FVCOM
[1] Twin experiments were made to compare the reduced rank Kalman filter (RRKF), ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF), and ensemble square-root Kalman filter (EnSKF) for coastal ocean problems in three idealized regimes: a flat bottom circular shelf driven by tidal forcing at the open boundary; an linear slope continental shelf with river discharge; and a rectangular estuary with tidal flushing intert...
