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

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

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

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

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

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

We applied the multigrid nonlinear least-squares four-dimensional variational assimilation(MG-NLS4DVar) method in data assimilation and prediction experiments for Typhoon Haikui(2012) using the Weather Research and Forecasting(WRF) model. Observation data included radial velocity(V_r) and reflectivity(Z) data from a single Doppler radar, quality controlled prior to assimilation. Typhoon prediction results were evaluated and compared between the NLS-4DVar and MG-NLS4DVar methods. Compared with a forecast that began with NCEP analysis data, our radar data assimilation results were clearly improved in terms of structure, intensity, track, and precipitation prediction for Typhoon Haikui(2012). The results showed that the assimilation accuracy of the NLS-4DVar method was similar to that of the MG-NLS4DVar method,but that the latter was more efficient. The assimilation of V_r alone and Z alone each improved predictions of typhoon intensity, track, and precipitation; however, the impacts of V_r data were significantly greater that those of Z data.Assimilation window-length sensitivity experiments showed that a 6-h assimilation window with 30-min assimilation intervals produced slightly better results than either a 3-h assimilation window with 15-min assimilation intervals or a 1-h assimilation window with 6-min assimilation intervals. 相似文献

针对GRAPES(Global/Regional Assimilation and Prediction System)模式三维变分系统高层背景场温湿廓线外推方案的局限性,提出以气候垂直廓线重新构造高层温湿垂直结构,以减小外推方案的偏差。首先采用一维变分同化系统,展开模拟实验:分析目前模式中使用的外推方案误差及其对反演结果的影响,利用高层大气气候廓线构造垂直结构并分析同化偏差。最后,运用GRAPES全球分析预报系统进行同化实验并分析改进程度。结果显示:模拟研究表明采用高层背景场温湿廓线外推方案与实际观测相比最大偏差在1 h Pa附近可达数十度以上,不仅影响平流层,而且对对流层也有影响;用气候温度数据修正GRAPES高层温度数据,可以减少50%以上的偏差,证明了用气候值高层数据优化现行GRAPES模式中同化系统高层插值方案的可行性。全球GRAPES三维变分同化试验结果显示,改进方案不仅显著的改善平流层分析质量,对对流层中高层也有改进。 相似文献

雷达观测对应模式变量非线性特征及对四维变分同化的影响 总被引：2，自引：2，他引：2
四维变分同化（4DVar）中切线性模式和伴随模式的时间积分长度即为同化时间窗的长度。为理解线性模式时间积分长度对4DVar的具体影响,在雷达观测对应变量非线性分析的基础上,进行了一系列不同时间窗（10 min、20 min和30 min）4DVar单点观测试验和一次降雨的实际雷达同化和预报试验。从径向风同化来看:短时间窗（10 min）的风场增量更大、更局地;长时间窗(20 min、30 min)的风场增量则更具系统性特征,但会丢失一些小尺度信息,导致暴雨预报能力降低。从反射率同化来看:短时间窗对6 h内强降水预报有较明显的改善,较长时间窗甚至会降低降水预报效果。研究旨在为合理设置4DVar的同化时间窗提供参考,以有效利用高时空分辨率的雷达观测资料,又尽量减小线性化造成的误差,进而快速有效地同化雷达信息。 相似文献

利用WRF（Weather Research and Forecasting）模式和基于本征正交分解的四维集合变分同化方法（POD-4DEnVar）,对2015年12月9日一次华南暴雨过程进行多普勒雷达资料同化试验,并与三维变分同化试验（WRF-3DVar）进行对比,讨论了POD-4DEnVar方法中局地化半径对模拟效果的敏感性。结果表明,比较不同化雷达资料的控制试验,WRF-3DVar和WRF-POD-4DEnVar试验的降水模拟结果得到明显改善,且WRF-POD-4DEnVar的降水强度更接近实况。两种同化方法通过改变不同的初始要素达到改进降水模拟效果的目的,3DVar方法通过调整初始风场,间接减弱暴雨发生的水汽条件,POD-4DEnVar方法则直接调整湿度场。在降水过程中,同化试验改变了冷空气活动和水汽通量辐合的模拟结果,从而改善降水的模拟效果。POD-4DEnVar方法对局地化半径比较敏感,随局地化半径增大,同化对风场和湿度场的影响范围扩大,当局地化半径取为200 km时,降水模拟的效果最好。 相似文献

Two sets of assimilation experiments on a landfalling typhoon—Typhoon Dan(1999)over the western North Pacific were designed to compare the performances of two kinds of variational data assimilation schemes that are the 3-Dimensional Variational data assimilation of Mapped observation(3DVM)and the 4-dimensional variational data assimilation(4DVar).Results show that:(1)both the 3DVM and 4DVar successfully improved the simulations of typhoon intensity and track incorporating the satellite AMSU-A retrieved temperature and wind data into the initial conditions,and the 3DVM more significantly due to the flow-dependent of background error covariance matrix and observation error covariance matrix like 3-dimensional variational data assimilation(3DVar)circle;(2)inclusions of extra model integration iterations at each observation time in the 3DVM make it more consistent with prediction model;(3)the 3DVM is much more time-saving due to the exclusion of the adjoint technique in it. 相似文献

This paper proposes a hybrid method, called CNOP–4 DVar, for the identification of sensitive areas in targeted observations, which takes the advantages of both the conditional nonlinear optimal perturbation(CNOP) and four-dimensional variational assimilation(4 DVar) methods. The proposed CNOP–4 DVar method is capable of capturing the most sensitive initial perturbation(IP), which causes the greatest perturbation growth at the time of verification; it can also identify sensitive areas by evaluating their assimilation effects for eliminating the most sensitive IP. To alleviate the dependence of the CNOP–4 DVar method on the adjoint model, which is inherited from the adjoint-based approach, we utilized two adjointfree methods, NLS-CNOP and NLS-4 DVar, to solve the CNOP and 4 DVar sub-problems, respectively. A comprehensive performance evaluation for the proposed CNOP–4 DVar method and its comparison with the CNOP and CNOP–ensemble transform Kalman filter(ETKF) methods based on 10 000 observing system simulation experiments on the shallow-water equation model are also provided. The experimental results show that the proposed CNOP–4 DVar method performs better than the CNOP–ETKF method and substantially better than the CNOP method. 相似文献

在进行多次外循环更新的增量分析框架下,前一次极小化迭代过程中产生的信息可提供给下一次极小化做预调节。该文在GRAPES全球四维变分同化系统中对极小化算法——L-BFGS算法实施了这种预调节,通过全观测的个例试验和批量试验进行评估,发现进行预调节后L-BFGS算法的收敛效率得到明显提高,而且在1个月的循环试验中表现十分稳定。该工作可以帮助GRAPES全球四维变分同化系统有效减少极小化的迭代次数,有利于满足业务化运行的时效要求。另外,间隔6 h和间隔24 h的两次4DVar分析对应的海森矩阵变化不大,因此,前一时刻极小化过程产生的信息提供给后一时刻的极小化进行预调节也有一定效果。 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

持续发展和优化切线性模式的线性化物理过程,保持与非线性模式一致是改善四维变分同化(4DVar)分析和预报效果的有效方法之一。目前业务系统的CMA-GFS模式采用基于Charney-Phillips(C-P)跳点的边界层参数化方案,而CMA-GFS 4DVar系统中采用基于Lorenz跳点的边界层线性化方案。为改善CMA-GFS 4DVar系统的边界层分析和预报效果,基于C-P跳点的边界层参数化方案研发了新边界层线性化方案,并通过对方案中地表热量通量和水汽通量扰动、自由大气的理查逊系数扰动、边界层的热量和动量交换系数扰动等进行更加精细地规约化约束,在确保CMA-GFS切线性和伴随模式稳定运行的情况下,减少线性化过程对切线性模式预报精度的影响。切线性近似试验检验表明:相较于原方案,新边界层线性化方案可以减少边界层位温和比湿的相对误差,最大可减少10%。批量4DVar循环同化试验表明:新边界层线性化方案可以有效改善切线性模式对低层位温、风场和比湿扰动的预报精度,减少4DVar内外循环目标泛函的相对差异,并提高700 hPa位势高度的可预报时效。 相似文献

研究的第一部分讨论了如何有效应用集合预报误差的科学方案,确定了集合预报误差在GRAPES（Global Regional Assimilation and PrEdiction System）全球4DVar（four dimensional variational data assimilation）中应用的分析框架。在此基础上研究了针对集合预报误差实际应用于GRAPES全球4DVar,解决接近或超过100个集合样本数时高效生成的计算效率问题,以及与GRAPES全球4DVar匹配的同化关键参数确定问题。选择基于4DVar的集合资料同化方法生成集合样本,通过将第1个样本极小化迭代过程中产生的预调节信息用于其他样本极小化做预调节,将计算效率提高了2倍。通过时间错位扰动方法增加集合样本数,实现集合样本增加到3倍。对集合方差进行膨胀,并选择水平局地化相关尺度为流函数背景误差水平相关的1.4倍。通过批量数值试验方法确定背景误差与集合预报误差的权重系数,对60个集合样本当集合预报误差权重为0.7时预报效果最好。对北半球夏、冬两季各52 d的批量试验表明,对于南、北半球En4DVar （ensemble 4DVar）较4DVar的改进在冬季主要集中在700—30 hPa,而在夏季主要集中在400—150 hPa。赤道地区受季节影响较小,En4DVar对位势高度、风场与温度的改进都较为明显,且经向风场的改进最为显著。文中研发的集合预报误差在GRAPES全球4DVar中应用的方法合理可行。 相似文献

The purpose of this paper is to provide a robust and flexible implementation of a proper orthogonal decomposition-based ensemble four-dimensional variational assimilation method(PODEn4DVar) through Rlocalization.With R-localization,the implementation of the local PODEn4DVar analysis can be coded for parallelization with enhanced assimilation precision.The feasibility and effectiveness of the PODEn4DVar local implementation with R-localization are demonstrated in a two-dimensional shallow-water equation model with simulated observations(OSSEs) in comparison with the original version of the PODEn4DVar with B-localization and that without localization.The performance of the PODEn4DVar with localization shows a significant improvement over the scheme with no localization,particularly under the imperfect model scenario.Moreover,the R-localization scheme is capable of outperforming the Blocalization case to a certain extent.Further,the assimilation experiments also demonstrate that PODEn4DVar with R-localization is most efficient due to its easy parallel implementation. 相似文献

Initialization and simulation of a landfalling typhoon using a variational bogus mapped data assimilation (BMDA) 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
Summary Recently, a new data assimilation method called “3-dimensional variational data assimilation of mapped observation (3DVM)”
has been developed by the authors. We have shown that the new method is very efficient and inexpensive compared with its counterpart
4-dimensional variational data assimilation (4DVar). The new method has been implemented into the Penn State/NCAR mesoscale
model MM5V1 (MM5_3DVM). In this study, we apply the new method to the bogus data assimilation (BDA) available in the original
MM5 with the 4DVar. By the new approach, a specified sea-level pressure (SLP) field (bogus data) is incorporated into MM5
through the 3DVM (for convenient, we call it variational bogus mapped data assimilation – BMDA) instead of the original 4DVar
data assimilation. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the new 3DVM method, initialization and simulation of a landfalling
typhoon – typhoon Dan (1999) over the western North Pacific with the new method are compared with that with its counterpart
4DVar in MM5. Results show that the initial structure and the simulated intensity and track are improved more significantly
using 3DVM than 4DVar. Sensitivity experiments also show that the simulated typhoon track and intensity are more sensitive
to the size of the assimilation window in the 4DVar than that in the 3DVM. Meanwhile, 3DVM takes much less computing cost
than its counterpart 4DVar for a given time window. 相似文献
