Comparison of 3DVar and EnSRF Data Assimilation Using Radar Observations for the Analysis and Prediction of an MCS
Using radar observations, the performances of the ensemble square root filter (EnSRF) and an indirect three-dimensional variational (3DVar) data assimilation method were compared for a mesoscale convective system (MCS) that occurred in the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains, Colorado (USA). The resu...
