Using AIRS retrievals in the WRF-LETKF system to improve regional numerical weather prediction
In addition to conventional observations, atmospheric temperature and humidity profile data from the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) Version 5 retrieval products are assimilated into the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, using the local ensemble transform Kalman filter (LETKF). Altho...
