• An effective next generation data assimilation system is required to analyze the state and its uncertainty across multiple scales, which hereafter is termed as “multiscale data assimilation (MDA)”

Sequential vs simultaneous multiscale DA
Sequential MDA Different obs assigned different influence radii (localization scale) when
sequentially assimilated Neglect each obs. contains useful info on errors at all resolved scales.
Simultaneous MDA Ensemble background error covariance(BEC) needs to be constructed to
properly reflect multiscale errors and their interactions. All obs are assimilated at once.
An example: construction of multiscale ensemble BEC through scale aware localization (e.g. Buehner and Shlyaeva 2015).
Allow to more effectively correct the full range of resolved scales with all available obs.

Simultaneous MDA in EnVar for global and convective scale NWP

We implemented simultaneous MDA in GSI 4DEnVar by forming multiscale ensemble BEC with scale aware localization extending from the extended control variable (ECV) approach in GSI EnVar(GSI ECV, Wang 2010)

W2 versus W1--- Single observation experiment
W1-1000 W1-300
W2-NoCross W2-Cross
W2-Cross-Uni
Applying the same amount of localization (1000km) at different wavebands in W2-Cross-Uni reproduces the analysis increment pattern in W1-1000, consistent with the theory.
W1-300 shows the most restricted analysis increment pattern.
Compared to W2-NoCross, W2-Cross is able to maintain two increment maxima as W1-1000, due to its inclusion of cross-waveband covariances,

Tempat 500 hPa
Among W1 experiments, wider localization length results in larger analysis increment power.
As expected, analysis increment power in W2-NoCross and W2-Cross is closer to W1-1000 (W1-300) at small (large) total wavenumbers.

W1-1000 shows the largest forecast error almost at all model levels, while W1-300 shows comparable or slightly improved background forecasts below 100 hPa in contrast to W1-Ope.
W2 improves the background forecasts over W1-Ope at most model levels.

W1-1000 in general degrades global forecasts compared to W1-Ope. Compared to W1-Ope, W1-300 shows degraded temperature forecasts above 150 hPa over five days, but slightly improved wind forecasts below 50 hPa within two days.
W2 SDL improves global forecasts almost at all pressure levels and lead times compared to W1-Ope.

RMSE difference between W2-Cross and W2-NoCross(blue/red better/worse forecasts in W2-Cross)
W2-NoCross shows slightly better forecasts than W2-Cross within one day. This may benefit from the spatial averaging of ensemble covariances in SD-NoCross.
Beyond one-day, W2-Cross in general shows more accurate forecasts than W2-NoCross, likely contributed by its higher degrees of retained heterogeneity of ensemble covariances and its more balanced analysis through including cross-waveband covariances.

Scale-dependent Covariance Localization for FV3GDAS 4DEnVar Data Assimilation System to Improve Global and Hurricane Predictions
PI: Xuguang Wang, University of Oklahoma
Summary of delivery, outcome, accomplishments:
• Developed and implemented both the horizontal and vertical simultaneous multiscale DA (MDA) in operational 4DEnVar system
• Cycled DA experiments with FV3GFS demonstrated that horizontal MDA improved global forecasts relative to the operational non-MDA configuration
• MDA including vertical dimension shows promises to further improve global forecast

By applying tighter horizontal localization at medium scale, W3 is less balanced than W2.

W3 in general shows worse global forecasts than W2 above 50 hPa.
W3 slightly improves the global forecasts at least to three days below 50 hPa.
Degraded global forecasts of W3-Cross versus W2-Cross below 50 hPa beyond three days may be associated with its less balanced analysis.
