An Efficient Approach Based on the Gradient Definition for Solving Conditional Nonlinear Optimal Perturbation

Conditional nonlinear optimal perturbation (CNOP) has been widely applied to study the predictability of weather and climate. The classical method of solving CNOP is adjoint method, in which the gradient is obtained using the adjoint model. But some numerical models have no adjoint models implemente...
