Observing system simulation experiments at the National Centers for Environmental Prediction [PDF]
Observing system impact assessments using atmospheric simulation experiments are conducted to provide an objective quantitative evaluation of future observing systems and instruments. Such simulation experiments using a proxy true atmosphere, Nature Run, are known as observing system simulation experiments (OSSEs).

Observing System Simulation Experiment: Development of the system and preliminary results
[1] An Observing System Simulation Experiment (OSSE) was developed and conducted to assess the potential impact of different observing strategies of field experiments on analysis and short-term forecasts. A Mei-Yu front rainfall case study, occurring in 2003 in southeastern Asia, was utilized to demonstrate the OSSE application to field experiments ...

Optimizing radar scan strategies for tracking isolated deep convection using observing system simulation experiments [PDF]
Optimizing radar observation strategies is one of the most important considerations in pre-field campaign periods. This is especially true for isolated convective clouds that typically evolve faster than the observations captured by operational radar ...
