Users Guide for Optimum Interpolation Method of Global Data Assimilation,
Abstract
This report is a manual for using the codes that produce the ASAP (AFGL Statistical Analysis Program) optimum interpolation global data analysis. It describes the procedures for running the codes and indicates necessary input and output files and their forms. It describes what variables need to be changed for desired changes in resolution, time and date of analysis, and other changes and where these variables are located in the codes. Also described are procedures for running the AFGL global spectral model and non-linear normal mode initialization in sequence with the analysis procedure to form the data assimilation cycle. The manual is designed to accompany code listings available from the author. Keywords include: Analysis resolution, and Assimilation cycle.
