Development and Application of Adjoint Models and Ensemble Techniques
Abstract
This proposal covers some broad topics that are of mutual interest to scientists at the Goddard Earth Science and Technology Center (GEST), the Global Modeling and Assimilation Office (GMAO) at NASA, the University of Innsbruck, Austria, and the Marine Meteorology Division of the Naval Research Laboratory. These concern problems related to numerical weather prediction, particularly the use and evaluation of initial data and the estimation of forecast and analysis uncertainty. Since specific analysis techniques are constantly being modified and eventually replaced, a goal is to distinguish what is fundamental from what is transitory, so that the work has long-term applications. The support provided by ONR augments work being performed at GEST and allows continuation of extensive collaborations between the P.I. and staff at these other institutions, particularly NRL.
