SummarySummaryEnsemble-based data assimilation can give erroneous analysis, particularly for observed rain areas without forecasted rain. In order to solve this problem, we developed the Ensemble-based assimilation method that uses Ensemble forecast error covariance with displacement error correction. This method consisted of a displacement error correction scheme and an Ensemble-based variational assimilation scheme.
31
SummarySummaryWe applied this method to assimilate TMI TBs (10, 19, and 21 GHz with vertical polarization) for a Typhoon case (9th June 2004). The results showed that the assimilation of TMI TBs alleviated the large-scale displacement errors and improved precip forecasts. The DEC scheme also avoided misinterpretation of TB increments due to precip displacements as those from other variables.
