A recursive filter or parameterized curve fitting technique is usually used in a three-dimensional variational data assimilation (3DVAR) scheme to approximate the background error covariance, which can only represent the errors of an ocean field over a predetermined scale. Without an accurate flow-dependent error covariance that is also local an...
Application of the multi-grid method to the China Seas' temperature forecast
Correlation scales have been used in the traditional scheme of three-dimensional variational data assimilation (3DVAR) to estimate the background (or first guess) error covariance matrix (the B matrix in brief) for the numerical forecast and reanalysis of ocean for decades. However, it is challenging to implement this scheme. On the one hand, de...
