On the parallelization of atmospheric inversions of CO<sub>2</sub> surface fluxes within a variational framework

The variational formulation of Bayes' theorem allows inferring CO<sub>2</sub> sources and sinks from atmospheric concentrations at much higher time–space resolution than the ensemble or analytical approaches. However, it usually exhibits limited scalable parallelism. This limita...
