Towards a Data-Derived Observation Error Covariance Matrix for Satellite Measurements

The observation error covariance (<i>R</i>) matrix is a key component in the data assimilation (DA) process for retrieval of atmospheric state parameters (ASPs), also impacting the subsequent numerical weather forecast. However, one commonly used type of <i>R</i> matrix depen...
