WWRP Data Assimilation & Observing Systems

l


 

Mission

 

DAOS aims to provide guidance to the WWRP to optimize the use of the current WMO Global Observing System (GOS). DAOS will facilitate the development of data assimilation and observing system methodologies from the convective scale to planetary scales and for forecasts with time ranges of hours to weeks.

  • DAOS should promote research related to observing systems of the WWRP projects such as the development of observing systems (either to become more capable or at least less expensive), network design aspects (which variables, spatial and temporal sampling), and scientific methods to quantify the value of observations in numerical weather prediction and beyond.
  • DAOS should promote research related to data assimilation of the WWRP projects such as data assimilation techniques for earth system prediction systems including coupled data assimilation (including hydrological data assimilation), urban scale prediction (e.g., heat, air quality) and for severe weather events such as heavy precipitation.
