Data assimilation training

Short course (Reading) by National Centre for Earth Observation (NCEO) · Free · Current

Data assimilation is one of the core activities needed to deliver weather forecasts, and to help understand the environment. This course will provide an introduction to data assimilation methods used in numerical weather prediction, including some of the latest developments. All methods will be derived from a common framework to allow a full overview of their assumptions and applicability. Furthermore, participants will get the opportunity to apply data assimilation methods to small numerical models, in order to obtain hands-on experience with the different methods.
