Current problems in scattering radiative transfer modelling for data assimilation
2011
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society
This article assesses current issues related to scattering radiative transfer (RT) in data assimilation (DA) and proposes possible ways to solve or mitigate these issues. Emphasis is put not so much on fundamental issues related to RT but on the practical application within a framework of operational numerical weather prediction and DA with their tight constraints on computational efficiency. In particular, three potentially critical open issues are studied: firstly, the trade-off between speed
