A methodology to obtain model-error covariances due to the discretization scheme from the parametric Kalman filter perspective [PDF]
This contribution addresses the characterization of the model-error covariance matrix from the new theoretical perspective provided by the parametric Kalman filter method which approximates the covariance dynamics from the parametric evolution of a ...

Initialization of SINS/GNSS Error Covariance Matrix Based on Error States Correlation
The traditional Strapdown Inertial Navigation System (SINS)/Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) integrated system uses standard Kalman Filter (KF) to estimate the error states, which weakens the correlation between the different error components to

Some quantitative characteristics of error covariance for Kalman filters
Some quantitative characteristics of error covariance are studied for linear Kalman filters. These quantitative characteristics include the peak value and location in the matrix, the decay rate from peak to bottom, and some algebraic constraints of the ...

Structure of forecast error covariance in coupled atmosphere–chemistry data assimilation [PDF]
In this study, we examined the structure of an ensemble-based coupled atmosphere–chemistry forecast error covariance. The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model coupled with Chemistry (WRF-Chem), a coupled atmosphere–chemistry model, was used to ...

Impact of different estimations of the background-error covariance matrix on climate reconstructions based on data assimilation [PDF]
Data assimilation has been adapted in paleoclimatology to reconstruct past climate states. A key component of some assimilation systems is the background-error covariance matrix, which controls how the information from observations spreads into the model
