TRANSCRIPT

Development of a European Land Data Assimilation System

(ELDAS)Combined

Research/Demonstration project EU 5th framework

Motivation

• Pilot study, to combine (European) expertise on soil moisture assimilation

• Provide a European contribution to GLDAS research

• Prepare/apply use of satellite data for soil moisture assimilation – MSG: thermal/visible– SMOS: microwave

• Simple data assimilation of METEOSAT TOA products in NWP RT model

• Verified against BSRN & local SW networks

Change of evaporation

Change of runoff

Change of soil water

Dealing with increments in ERA40 hydrological budget

analysis1. Subtract I from runoff2. If runoff < 0, compensate with dW

Wrap up

• Infrastructural developments are involved

• Demo & Validation in progress• Analysis of analyses: fairly

inefficient in terms of changing evaporation– Calls for adjustment of E/W

instead of W

Final Workshop

• 8-11 nov 2004• ECMWF, Reading
