Four-dimensional variational data assimilation for inverse modelling of atmospheric methane emissions: method and comparison with synthesis inversion
A four-dimensional variational (4D-Var) data assimilation system for inverse modelling of atmospheric methane emissions is presented. The system is based on the TM5 atmospheric transport model. It can be used for assimilating large volumes of measurements, in particular satellite observations and quasi-continuous in-situ observations, and at the same time it enables the optimization of a large ...
متن کاملSensitivity analysis of methane emissions derived from SCIAMACHY observations through inverse modelling
Satellite observations of trace gases in the atmosphere offer a promising method for global verification of emissions and improvement of global emission inventories. Here, an inverse modelling approach based on fourdimensional variational (4D-var) data assimilation is presented and applied to synthetic measurements of atmospheric methane. In this approach, emissions and initial concentrations a...
متن کاملCalculation of One-dimensional Forward Modelling of Helicopter-borne Electromagnetic Data and a Sensitivity Matrix Using Fast Hankel Transforms
The helicopter-borne electromagnetic (HEM) frequency-domain exploration method is an airborne electromagnetic (AEM) technique that is widely used for vast and rough areas for resistivity imaging. The vast amount of digitized data flowing from the HEM method requires an efficient and accurate inversion algorithm. Generally, the inverse modelling of HEM data in the first step requires a precise a...
متن کاملTechnical note : an interannual inversion method for continuous CO 2 data
A sequential synthesis inversion method is described to estimate CO 2 sources from continuous atmospheric data. The sequential method makes the problem computationally feasible. The method is assessed using four-hourly synthetic concentration data generated from known sources. Multi-year mean sources and seasonal cycles are estimated with comparable quality as those from a traditional inversion...
متن کاملA Comparison Study of Data Assimilation Algorithms for Ozone Forecasts
The objective of this report is to evaluate the performances of different data assimilation schemes with the aim of designing suitable assimilation algorithms for short-range ozone forecasts in realistic applications. The underlying atmospheric chemistry-transport models are stiff but stable systems with high uncertainties (e.g., over 20% for ozone daily peaks, Hanna et al. [1998]; Mallet and S...
