Tim Payne Large-Scale Inverse Problems and Applications in the Earth Sciences October 24th 2011 The Construction and Use of Linear Models in Large-scale Data Assimilation
Part I. The Construction of Linear Models in Data Assimilation
Options for linearisation step required for incremental 4D-Var
Prior covariance using the best linear estimate always underestimates the true prior
Mean square analysis error in Duffing map: TL and best linear estimate compared
Part II. The Use of Linear Models in Data Assimilation
Linearisation error in 4D-Var as used in real numerical weather prediction models
Signal model for system with time correlated linearisation error
Example: L95, nearly perfect full model, persistence for linear model
Example: L95, nearly perfect full model, persistence for linear model, results
Variational version: weak constraint 4D-Var allowing for time correlated linearisation error
Long window weak constraint 4D-Var allowing for linearisation error, same example
