Data assimilation (1/2)

• The “Forecast” will be the “First Guess” of the next time step.

DA cycle

Data assimilation (2/2)

Error = RMS of (DA run – Truth run)DA run starts from t=50day, but Truth run starts from t=100day

Experiments

• DA run: only assimilate upper layer• Direct insertion (no objective analysis)

• Int=1day• Int=2day• Int=5day

• Optimum Interpolation• Div=2 gridpoints• Div=3 gridpoints• Div=4 gridpoints• Div=5 gridpoints
