Data Assimilation Methods Optimal interpolation (OI)
Easy to apply, computationally efficient 3D-Var
Adjusts all variables in the whole domain simultaneously. Currently, GSI is being developed at NOAA/NASA/NCAR
4D-Var Provides more flexibility, requires adjoint model
Kalman Filter

PresenterPresentation NotesNCEP: Hybrid GSI-EnKF data assimilation system seemed on track to be implemented in a few months
-
Optimal Interpolation (OI) OI is a sequential data assimilation method. At each
time step, we solve an analysis problem
We assume observations far away (beyond background error correlation length scale) have no effect in the analysis
In the current study, the data injection takes place at 1700Z daily

Model Species that replaced in IC/BC with NOAA data
Simulate the period of 12Z on July 1, 2011 through 12Z on July 12, 2011 for testing assimilated PM fields as IC/BC. The tests are conducted on the 12- and 4-km grids with IC/BC modified for the 12-km grid. IC/BC of base and fdda cases are prepared using the NOAA provided data with the following 25 model species modified from the IC/BC that the original hindcast used .

PresenterPresentation NotesHardly any impact for this case as Mid Atlantic is not benefit the 12km parent domain run significantly by ingesting MODIS AOD
-
Summary and future work
Assimilating MODIS AOD using OI method is able to improve AOD and PM2.5 predictions in selected regions. The improvement is not “yet” significant.
Dynamic BC from archived best chemical fields generated by this project can support SIP modeling. E.g. The SIP-type limited-domain modeling result over Baltimore-Washington presented was based on ingesting assimilated AOD through dynamic LBCs.
Assimilating both MODIS AOD and AIRNow PM2.5 is expected to have better results and will be tested.

Estimate Model Error Statistics w/ Hollingsworth-Lonnberg Method
• At each data point, calculate differences between forecasts (B) and observations (O)
• Pair up data points, and calculate the correlation coefficients between the two time series
• Plot the correlation as a function of the distance between the two stations,

The performance measures over the 4 km resolution may not be necessarily better than over the coarser (12 km) resolution; it may be even worse if it is evaluated using the traditional evaluation metrics based on paired obs-mod data
