降维投影四维变分同化(DRP-4DVar)方法的背景误差协方差是由基于历史预报的扰动样本统计得到的,为了改进降维投影四维变分同化系统中背景误差协方差的流依赖特性,提出了对初始扰动样本进行预分析的新思路,即在对背景场分析之前,利用降维投影四维变分同化系统本身对每个样本进行预先分析,使得统计出的背景误差协方差随实际的天气形势而变化,从而实现其在真正意义上的流依赖,且在循环同化时能够避免滤波发散现象的出现。试验结果表明,对样本进行预先分析能够通过改善同化系统中背景误差协方差的空间结构和流依赖特性,来进一步改进降维投影四维变分同化方法的性能,为数值模式提供更精确的初始场,从而提高了基本模式变量的预报精度,并改善了对强降水的模拟能力。相比较而言,对所有初始扰动样本都进行了预分析的同化试验能够得到最优的分析和预报。 相似文献

下载免费PDF全文 Land surface models are often highly nonlinear with model physics that contain parameterized discontinuities. These model attributes severely limit the application of advanced variational data assimilation methods into land data assimilation. The ensemble Kalman filter （EnKF） has been widely employed for land data assimilation because of its simple conceptual formulation and relative ease of implementation. An updated ensemble-based three-dimensional variational assimilation （En3-DVar） method is proposed for land data assimilation This new method incorporates Monte Carlo sampling strategies into the 3-D variational data assimilation framework. The proper orthogonal decomposition （POD） technique is used to efficiently approximate a forecast ensemble produced by the Monte Carlo method in a 3-D space that uses a set of base vectors that span the ensemble. The data assimilation process is thus significantly simplified. Our assimilation experiments indicate that this new En3-DVar method considerably outperforms the EnKF method by increasing assimilation precision. Furthermore, computational costs for the new En3-DVar method are much lower than for the EnKF method. 相似文献

DRP-4DVar方法同化AIRS反演资料在一次江淮流域暴雨中的应用 总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1
利用经济省时的降维投影四维变分同化方法(DRP-4DVar),在2009年7月22～23日江淮流域的一次大暴雨过程中同化晴空条件下高光谱大气红外探测仪(AIRS)反演温度、湿度廓线,改进此次强降水过程的模拟。试验结果分析显示,同化AIRS反演的温度及湿度场后,基于四维变分同化系统的模式约束,能够改进湿度场、高度场、高低层散度场。从累积降水量偏差图及同化试验增量图可以看到,正降水量偏差对应于正湿度增量、负位势高度增量及低层负散度高层正散度增量,负降水量偏差则与之相反。同化试验较参照试验可更好地模拟出暴雨的天气形势、对暴雨的落区及强度有更好的反映。此外,从单次同化与连续同化的试验对比结果看出,连续同化试验结果较单次同化结果有进一步的改进,说明不断加入新的观测资料可以更好地模拟强降水过程。 相似文献

A four dimensional variational data assimilation (4DVar) based on a
dimension-reduced projection (DRP-4DVar) has been developed as a hybrid of
the 4DVar and Ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) concepts. Its good
flow-dependent features are demonstrated in single-point experiments through
comparisons with adjoint-based 4DVar and three-dimensional variational data
(3DVar) assimilations using the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State
University-National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale Model (MM5).
The results reveal that DRP-4DVar can reasonably generate a background error
covariance matrix (simply B-matrix) during the assimilation window from an initial estimation using a number of initial condition dependent historical forecast samples. In contrast, flow-dependence in the B-matrix of MM5 4DVar is barely detectable. It is argued that use of diagonal estimation in the B-matrix of the MM5 4DVar method at the initial time leads to this failure. The experiments also show that the increments produced by DRP-4DVar are
anisotropic and no longer symmetric with respect to observation location due
to the effects of the weather trends captured in its B-matrix. This differs from the MM5 3DVar which does not consider the influence of heterogeneous forcing on the correlation structure of the B-matrix, a condition that is realistic for many situations. Thus, the MM5 3DVar assimilation could only present an isotropic and homogeneous structure in its increments. 相似文献

In this study we extend the dimension-reduced projection-four dimensional variational data assimilation (DRP-4DVar) approach to allow the analysis time to be tunable, so that the intervals between analysis time and observation times can be shortened. Due to the limits of the perfect-model assumption and the tangentlinear hypothesis, the analysis-time tuning is expected to have the potential to further improve analyses and forecasts. Various sensitivity experiments using the Lorenz-96 model are conducted to test the impact of analysistime tuning on the performance of the new approach under perfect and imperfect model scenarios, respectively. Comparing three DRP-4DVar schemes having the analysis time at the start, middle, and end of the assimilation window, respectively, it is found that the scheme with the analysis time in the middle of the window outperforms the others, on the whole. Moreover, the advantage of this scheme is more pronounced when a longer assimilation window is adopted or more observations are assimilated. 相似文献

A typhoon bogus data assimilation scheme (BDA) using dimension-reduced projection four-dimen-sional variational data assimilation (DRP-4-DVar),called DRP-BDA for short,is built in the Advanced Regional Eta Model (AREM).As an adjoint-free approach,DRP-BDA saves time,and only several minutes are taken for the full BDA process.To evaluate its performance,the DRP-BDA is applied to a case study on a landfall ty-phoon,Fengshen (2008),from the Northwestern Pacific Ocean to Guangdong province,in which the bogus sea level pressure (SLP) is assimilated as a kind of observa-tion.The results show that a more realistic typhoon with correct center position,stronger warm core vortex,and more reasonable wind fields is reproduced in the analyzed initial condition through the new approach.Compared with the control run (CTRL) initialized with NCEP Final (FNL) Global Tropospheric Analyses,the DRP-BDA leads to an evidently positive impact on typhoon track forecasting and a small positive impact on typhoon inten-sity forecasting.Furthermore,the forecast landfall time conforms to the observed landfall time,and the forecast track error at the 36th hour is 32 km,which is much less than that of the CTRL (450 km). 相似文献

This paper extends the dimension-reduced pro- jection four-dimensional variational assimilation method （DRP-4DVar） by adding a nonlinear correction process, thereby forming the DRP-4DVar with a nonlinear correction, which shall hereafter be referred to as the NC-DRP- 4DVar. A preliminary test is conducted using the Lorenz-96 model in one single-window experiment and several multiple-window experiments. The results of the single-window experiment show that compared with the adjoint-based traditional 4DVar, the final convergence of the cost function for the NC-DRP-4DVar is almost the same as that using the traditional 4DVar, but with much less computation. Furthermore, the 30-window assimilation experiments demonstrate that the NC-DRP-4DVar can alleviate the linearity approximation error and reduce the root mean square error significantly. 相似文献

Four-dimensional variational data assimilation (4DVar) is one of the most
promising methods to provide optimal analysis for numerical weather
prediction (NWP). Five national NWP centers in the world have successfully
applied 4DVar methods in their global NWPs, thanks to the increment method
and adjoint technique. However, the application of 4DVar is still limited by
the computer resources available at many NWP centers and research
institutes. It is essential, therefore, to further reduce the computational
cost of 4DVar. Here, an economical approach to implement 4DVar is proposed,
using the technique of dimension-reduced projection (DRP), which is called
``DRP-4DVar." The proposed approach is based on dimension reduction using
an ensemble of historical samples to define a subspace. It directly obtains
an optimal solution in the reduced space by fitting observations with
historical time series generated by the model to form consistent forecast
states, and therefore does not require implementation of the adjoint of
tangent linear approximation.
To evaluate the performance of the DRP-4DVar on assimilating different types
of mesoscale observations, some observing system simulation experiments are
conducted using MM5 and a comparison is made between adjoint-based 4DVar and
DRP-4DVar using a 6-hour assimilation window. 相似文献

This study examines the performance of coupling the deterministic four-dimensional
variational assimilation system (4DVAR) with an ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) to produce a
superior hybrid approach for data assimilation. The coupled assimilation scheme (E4DVAR)
benefits from using the state-dependent uncertainty provided by EnKF while taking advantage
of 4DVAR in preventing filter divergence: the 4DVAR analysis produces posterior maximum
likelihood solutions through minimization of a cost function about which the ensemble
perturbations are transformed, and the resulting ensemble analysis can be propagated forward
both for the next assimilation cycle and as a basis for ensemble forecasting. The feasibility
and effectiveness of this coupled approach are demonstrated in an idealized model with
simulated observations. It is found that the E4DVAR is capable of outperforming both 4DVAR
and the EnKF under both perfect- and imperfect-model scenarios. The performance of the
coupled scheme is also less sensitive to either the ensemble size or the assimilation window
length than those for standard EnKF or 4DVAR implementations. 相似文献

The three-/four-dimensional variational data assimilation systems (3/4DVAR) of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model were explored in the forecasting of two Antarctic synoptic cyclones, which had large influence on the Ross Sea/Ross Ice Shelf region in October 2007. A suite of variational data assimilation experiments, including regular 3DVAR, high-resolution 3DVAR, and 4DVAR experiments, were designed to evaluate their performances in weather analysis and forecasting in Antarctica. In general, both 4DVAR and high-resolution 3DVAR experiments showed better forecasting skill than regular 3DVAR experiments. High-resolution 3DVAR experiments were the most efficient in reducing the analysis errors of surface winds and temperature, and had the best performance during the first 24 h of forecasting. However, during the following forecast period, 4DVAR experiments showed either better or about comparable performance to high-resolution 3DVAR experiments. These results indicate that increasing the spatial resolution during 3DVAR is an economical approach to improving the weather analysis and forecasting over Antarctica. At the same time, the 4DVAR approach had a longer impact on forecasting than the high-resolution 3DVAR approach. Understandably, both of the variational assimilation approaches are promising techniques toward improving the regional analysis and forecasting over Antarctica. 相似文献

时间扩展取样集合卡尔曼滤波同化模拟探空试验研究 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
目前,集合卡尔曼滤波同化预报循环系统主要的计算量和时间都花费在样本成员的预报上,小样本数虽能减少计算量,但样本数过少,特别是当有模式误差时,又会导致滤波发散。为了提高集合卡尔曼滤波同化预报循环系统的效率并减轻滤波发散等问题,开展了基于WRF的时间扩展取样集合卡尔曼滤波同化模拟探空的试验研究,以考察其在中尺度模式中的同化效果。预报时对一组样本数为Nb的样本,不仅在分析时刻取样,同时也在分析时刻前和后每间隔Δt时间进行M次取样,即在没增加预报样本数的情况下,增加了分析样本成员数(Nb+2M×Nb),从而在保证不降低分析精度的前提下,也达到减小集合卡尔曼滤波的计算量的要求。通过一系列试验来检验时间扩展取样的时间间隔Δt及在分析时刻前和后最大取样次数M对同化结果的影响。试验结果表明,当选择合适的Δt和M时,时间扩展集合卡尔曼滤波的同化效果非常接近于样本数为(1+2M)×Nb的传统集合卡尔曼滤波效果,具有一定的可行性。 相似文献

Summary This paper describes initial effort in the development of a four-dimensional variational data assimilation (4D-Var) in the tropics using precipitation data derived from remote sensing. The method of 4D-Var using precipitation data is formulated, and modifications to the parameterization schemes of moist processes to remove zeroth-order discontinuities are described. Variational data assimilation experiments are carried out using a column model to investigate the problems caused by discontinuities in parameterization schemes and assess the impact of assimilating precipitation data in the tropics.It is found that variational data assimilation with discontinuous parameterization schemes exhibits large fluctuations during the minimization process, slow convergence rates, and large analysis errors. The fluctuations become much more serious when precipitation data is assimilated. Precipitation data is very useful to estimate divergence in the tropics, provided that the temporal resolution of the data is sufficiently high. However, its impact on the analysis of temperature and moisture is not clear in the column model assimilation experiments, possibly due to the absence of horizontal advection. 相似文献

Reducing the prediction uncertainties of high-impact weather and climate events: An overview of studies at LASG 下载免费PDF全文
下载免费PDF全文 This paper summarizes recent progress at the State Key Laboratory of Numerical Modeling for Atmospheric Sciences and Geophysical Fluid Dynamics (LASG), Institute of Atmospheric Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences in studies on targeted observations, data assimilation, and ensemble prediction, which are three effective strategies to reduce the prediction uncertainties and improve the forecast skill of weather and climate events. Considering the limitations of traditional targeted observation approaches, LASG researchers have developed a conditional nonlinear optimal perturbation-based targeted observation strategy to optimize the design of the observing network. This strategy has been employed to identify sensitive areas for targeted observations of the El Niño–Southern Oscillation, Indian Ocean dipole, and tropical cyclones, and has been demonstrated to be effective in improving the forecast skill of these events. To assimilate the targeted observations into the initial state of a numerical model, a dimension-reducedprojection- based four-dimensional variational data assimilation (DRP-4DVar) approach has been proposed and is used operationally to supply accurate initial conditions in numerical forecasts. The performance of DRP-4DVar is good, and its computational cost is much lower than the standard 4DVar approach. Besides, ensemble prediction, which is a practical approach to generate probabilistic forecasts of the future state of a particular system, can be used to reduce the prediction uncertainties of single forecasts by taking the ensemble mean of forecast members. In this field, LASG researchers have proposed an ensemble forecast method that uses nonlinear local Lyapunov vectors (NLLVs) to yield ensemble initial perturbations. Its application in simple models has shown that NLLVs are more useful than bred vectors and singular vectors in improving the skill of the ensemble forecast. Therefore, NLLVs represent a candidate for possible development as an ensemble method in operational forecasts. Despite the considerable efforts made towards developing these methods to reduce prediction uncertainties, much challenging but highly important work remains in terms of improving the methods to further increase the skill in forecasting such weather and climate events. 相似文献

By sampling perturbed state vectors from each ensemble prediction run at properly selected time levels in the vicinity of the analysis time, the recently proposed time-expanded sampling approach can enlarge the ensemble size without increasing the number of prediction runs and, hence, can reduce the computational cost of an ensemble-based filter. In this study, this approach is tested for the first time with real radar data from a tornadic thunderstorm. In particular, four assimilation experiments were performed to test the time-expanded sampling method against the conventional ensemble sampling method used by ensemble- based filters. In these experiments, the ensemble square-root filter (EnSRF) was used with 45 ensemble members generated by the time-expanded sampling and conventional sampling from 15 and 45 prediction runs, respectively, and quality-controlled radar data were compressed into super-observations with properly reduced spatial resolutions to improve the EnSRF performances. The results show that the time-expanded sampling approach not only can reduce the computational cost but also can improve the accuracy of the analysis, especially when the ensemble size is severely limited due to computational constraints for real-radar data assimilation. These potential merits are consistent with those previously demonstrated by assimilation experiments with simulated data. 相似文献

In this study,the authors introduce a new bogus data assimilation method based on the dimension-reduced projection 4-DVar,which can resolve the cost function directly in low-dimensional space.The authors also try a new method to improve the quality of samples,which are the base of dimension-reduced space projection bogus data assimilation (DRP-BDA).By running a number of numerical weather models with different model parameterization combinations on the typhoon Sinlaku,the authors obtained two groups of samples with different spreads and similarities.After DRP-BDA,the results show that,compared with the control runs,the simulated typhoon center pressure can be deepened by more than 20 hPa to 30 hPa and that the intensity can last as long as 60 hours.The mean track error is improved after DRP-BDA,and the structure of the typhoon is also improved.The wind near the typhoon center is enhanced dramatically,while the warm core is moderate. 相似文献

四维变分同化由于引入预报模式作为一项约束,理论上它的分析场已经具有较好的平衡性,但实施时还会有诸多因重力波导致的高频振荡过程,因此,四维变分同化(4DVar)分析仍需要初始化。文中描述了GRAPES全球四维变分同化系统(GRAPES-4DVar)的新初始化方案的科学设计、公式演绎以及试验结果。GRAPES-4DVar的新初始化方案采用数字滤波方案作为代价函数的一项约束控制重力波引发的不平衡结构,约束强加在分析增量上与极小化迭代过程同步进行。新的初始化方案是变分同化系统的一部分,数字滤波的积分时间与4DVar的同化时间窗一致,不会对4DVar产生额外的计算资源消耗;并能适应长时间窗的同化,不会因为时间窗的延长而削弱慢波过程。新初始化方案中,模式轨迹的光滑程度可在变分同化中通过重力波控制项的权重系数方便控制。GRAPES全球四维变分同化的理想和循环同化批量试验都表明,在四维变分同化中,重力波的控制依然非常重要,具有初始化的GRAPES试验,无论分析还是预报技巧都较无初始化的有明显优势。与以前分析和滤波独立实施的旧初始化方案相比,新方案的分析和预报效果略优,同时有效地节省循环同化系统的运行时间,这对四维变分同化来说非常重要。 相似文献

A practical implementation of the data assimilation algorithm based on the Kalman filter in its complete formulation is impossible due to high dimension of the associated equation sets and to nonlinearity of the predicted processes. The main direction in the implementation of the Kalman filter is an ensemble approach. Under the assumption of ergodicity of random forecast errors, an alternative algorithm with respect to the ensemble Kalman filter can be considered, in which probability averaging is replaced by time averaging. The proposes algorithm is based this assumption. The algorithm is easy to implement; however, its convergence, applicability to the data assimilation problems, and connection to the Kalman filter have not been studied. In the paper, applicability of the π-algorithm to data assimilation is considered on an example of a simple one-dimensional advection equation. Use of this simple equation allows comparing the classical Kalman filter algorithm with various practical approaches to its implementation. 相似文献
