Data assimilation in glaciology [PDF]
, 2014 Abstract This chapter addresses an inverse problem in glaciology, namely how to infer a climatic scenario (i.e. how to reconstruct past polar temperature) from ice volume records. Ice volume observations are available from oceanic records, giving information about sea level, and therefore about the amount of water stored in ice sheets ...

Sampling error of observation impact statistics [PDF]
Tellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2014 An observation impact is an estimate of the forecast error reduction by assimilating observations with numerical model forecasts. This study compares the sampling errors of the observation impact statistics (OBIS) of July 2011 and January 2012 using two ...
