An iterative ensemble square root filter and tests with simulated radar data for stormscale data assimilation
An iterative procedure is designed to accelerate the ‘spin-up’ of ensemble square-root filter (EnSRF) data-assimilation cycles when starting from a poor initial ensemble. Referred to as the iterative EnSRF (iEnSRF), this iterative procedure follows the ‘running in place’ (RIP) concept developed for the local ensemble transform Kalman filter (LETKF) but because of algorithm differences is implem...
متن کاملAn Efficient Dual-Resolution Approach for Ensemble Data Assimilation and Tests with Simulated Doppler Radar Data
A new efficient dual-resolution (DR) data assimilation algorithm is developed based on the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) method and tested using simulated radar radial velocity data for a supercell storm. Radar observations are assimilated on both high-resolution and lower-resolution grids using the EnKF algorithm with flow-dependent background error covariances estimated from the lower-resolut...
متن کاملSPE 109808 An Iterative Ensemble Kalman Filter for Data Assimilation
The ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) is a subject of intensive investigation for use as a reservoir management tool. For strongly nonlinear problems, however, EnKF can fail to achieve an acceptable data match at certain times in the assimilation process. Here, we provide iterative EnKF procedures to remedy this deficiency and explore the validity of these iterative methods compared to standard EnK...
متن کاملAssimilation of Polarimetric Radar Data Using Ensemble Kalman Filter: Experiment with Simulated Data
Since the use of differential reflectivity for rainfall estimation was first proposed by Seliga and Bringi (1976), many studies have shown that polarimetric measurements can improve precipitation type classification and quantitative precipitation estimate (Straka et al. 2000). Moreover, the polarimetric radar (PR) upgrade plan of the National Weather Services (NWS) for the operational WSR-88D n...
متن کاملAssimilation of Simulated Polarimetric Radar Data for a Convective Storm Using the Ensemble Kalman Filter. Part II: Impact of Polarimetric Data on Storm Analysis
A data assimilation system based on the ensemble square-root Kalman filter (EnSRF) is extended to include the additional capability of assimilating polarimetric radar variables. It is used to assess the impact of assimilating additional polarimetric observations on convective storm analysis in the Observing System Simulation Experiment (OSSE) framework. The polarimetric variables considered inc...
