Meteorological Studies with the Phased Array Weather Radar and Data Assimilation Using the Ensemble Kalman Filter

Abstract

The long-term goal of this project is to integrate two state-of-the-art technologies, the phased array weather radar (PAR) and the emerging Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF) data assimilation method, to optimize the radar performance and improve coastal and marine numerical weather prediction (NWP).
