The ECMWF operational implementation of four-dimensional variational assimilation. I: Experimental results with simplified physics

TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive set of physical parametrizations has been linearized for use in the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF's) incremental four-dimensional variational (4D-Var) system described in Part I.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leaf litter decomposition-Estimates of global variability based on Yasso07 model

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the global patterns of litter decomposition and developed a description of this process and tested the validity of this description using a large set of foliar litter mass loss measurements (nearly 10,000 data points derived from approximately 70,000 litter bags).
Journal ArticleDOI

Variational quality control

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the implementation of variational quality control in the operational four-dimensional variational data assimilation scheme at the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) the quality control takes place during the iterative solution of the variational analysis problem itself, rather than in a separate step prior to the main analysis.

Human population dynamics in Europe over the Last Glacial Maximum.

TL;DR: It is shown that the dynamics of the human population in Europe from 30,000 to 13,000 y ago can be simulated using ethnographic and paleoclimate data within the climate envelope modeling approach, and correspondence between the population simulation and archaeological data suggests that population dynamics were indeed driven by major climate fluctuations.
