Accounting for vs. reducing model inadequacy
• Accounting for model inadequacy– “If you can show me how I can make better forecasts
using chicken bones and voodoo dolls, then I’m going to use them!”
» Harold Brooks, NSSL
– initial conditions (Q-term)– forecasts (MM, stochastic, MOS, forecast 4d-Var)
• Reducing model inadequacy– Making changes to our model so that it becomes a
better representation of the true system– parametric error– structural error

Reducing model inadequacy
• Reducing model inadequacy is best framed as an off-line, or “reanalysis” activity
– The process of attempting to identify model inadequacy tends to make both initial conditions and forecasts worse
– The aim is to quantify how the model is wrong, fix it, and then worry about data assimilation and forecasting

A proposed approach
• Use data assimilation tools to alter model parameters to better fit observations
• Identify relationships between fit parameters and prognostic variables (a parametric MOS)
• Change model to reflect relationships• Repeat
When all relationships have been uncovered, the history of fit parameter values provides a distributionfrom which to (carefully) draw for the purpose ofstochastic parameterizations

Use data assimilation tools to alter model parameters to better fit observations
• Augment control vector with unknown parameters
• Augmentation removes the nonlinearity from the observation operator and inserts it into the specification of the control vector

SDE crash course
• The type of calculus used to integrate the stochastic bits of SDEs matters– Stratonovich calculus
• noise process is continuous (typical assumption for geophysical fluid flows)
– Ito calculus• noise process is discrete (like DA!)
• SDEs can be tricky (and expensive) to integrate– used stochastic RK4 (Hansen and Penland, 2005)

Why can’t DA uncover the correct form of the stochasticity?
• Stochasticity operating at different time-scales – SDE has infinitesimal time-scale– ODE with DA has 6-hourly time-scale
• System is using Stratonovich calculus, DA is using Ito calculus
• All leads to a danger of misinterpretation
Model error!

What does it all mean?• Deterministic model DA approaches alone are not
enough to uncover the correct form of stochasticity– Implies that we cannot attach physical significance to
tuned parameter values or distributions
• Our efforts to reduce model inadequacy ultimately lead to a sensible way to account for model inadequacy
• Synoptic time-scale, Ito-like stochasticity via parameter estimation does a great job accounting for model inadequacy during forecasting
