Long-window 4DVar for reanalysis using a differentiable weather model

Gregory J. Hakim, Jeffrey S. Whitaker, Bo Huang +1

Atmospheric reanalyses combine observations with model forecasts using complex data assimilation systems. We test whether a differentiable weather model permits a simpler and more…

HealDA: Highlighting the importance of initial errors in end-to-end AI weather forecasts

Aayush Gupta, Akshay Subramaniam, Michael S. Pritchard +6

AI weather models now rival leading numerical weather prediction (NWP) systems in medium-range skill. However, almost all still rely on NWP data assimilation (DA) to provide initia…
