Dear Colleagues,
</p>
<p>
Having employed the
<span class="caps">
NWP
</span>
mode of the
<span class="caps">
COSMO
</span>
model to produce simulations with assimilated data I intend to do likewise now with the
<span class="caps">
RCM
</span>
.
<br/>
After having flicked through the
<span class="caps">
COSMO
</span>
documentation I found no special remarks as to the assimilation of data in the climate mode. Should I then assume that the Data Assimilation with the nudging scheme can be done in the same manner as with the
<span class="caps">
NWP
</span>
mode? That is to say, following the same process and keeping the same nudging settings?
<br/>
Does anybody know of written documentation or articles that deal with data assimilation with the nudging scheme in
<span class="caps">
COSMO
</span>
in the Climate mode?
</p>
<p>
Thanks,
</p>

Dear Alberto,
</p>
<p>
to my knowledge data assimilation as such has never been applied in the climate version of
<span class="caps">
COSMO
</span>
.
<br/>
Only the option of spectral nudging has already been used by several colleagues, but not by me.
</p>
<p>
Thus, from the technical point of view it would be interesting to know whether data assimilation in general would work in the climate mode.
<br/>
But: if it would work, what is the sense behind it?
<br/>
Which data do you want to use for the assimilation when you are performing climate simulations for the future?

Dear Mr. Panitz
</p>
<p>
Thank you for your reply and your providing of information.
</p>
<p>
The Data assimilation I intend to perform is of a highly resolved
<span class="caps">
GPS
</span>
- Integrated water vapour data set in the period September-March 2012. The purpose of such assimilation is to observe the impact of this selective assimilation on the represented moisture fields and precipitation extremes, that is to say, only when
<span class="caps">
GPS
</span>
-
<span class="caps">
IWV
</span>
data are assimilated.
</p>
<p>
I do not plan to simulate periods in the future, but rather past periods (of a few months) in the year 2012.
</p>
<p>
I think it would be interesting to study the response of the model to this assimilation from a seasonal point of view. That is why I want to use the Climate mode.
</p>
<p>
With kind regards
