TL;DR: The Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA) was undertaken by NASA's Global Modeling and Assimilation Office with two primary objectives: to place observations from NASA's Earth Observing System satellites into a climate context and to improve upon the hydrologic cycle represented in earlier generations of reanalyses as mentioned in this paper.
Documentation and Validation of the Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS) Data Assimilation System, Version 4
Max J. Suarez,Arlindo daSilva,Dick Dee,S. C. Bloom,Michael G. Bosilovich,Steven Pawson,Siegfried D. Schubert,Man-Li Wu,Meta Sienkiewicz,Ivanka Stajner +9 more
TL;DR: The GEOS-4 data assimilation system as mentioned in this paper has been used in supporting field campaigns and for reprocessing several years of data for CERES for the past few years.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Multiyear Global Surface Wind Velocity Dataset Using SSM/I Wind Observations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a methodology to assign directions to the SSM/I wind speeds and to produce analyses using these data, which has been used in a variety of atmospheric and oceanic applications and are available to interested investigators.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effects of Marine Winds from Scatterometer Data on Weather Analysis and Forecasting
Robert Atlas,Ross N. Hoffman,S. M. Leidner,J. Sienkiewicz,T.-W. Yu,S. C. Bloom,E. Brin,J. Ardizzone,J. Terry,D. Bungato,J. C. Jusem +10 more
TL;DR: Satellite scatterometer observations of the ocean surface wind speed and direction improve the depiction of storms at sea as discussed by the authors, where scatterometer surface winds are deduced from multiple measurements of reflected radar power made from several directions.
Technical report series on global modeling and data assimilation. Volume 4: Documentation of the Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS) data assimilation system, version 1
Max J. Suarez,James Pfaendtner,S. C. Bloom,David J. Lamich,Michael Seablom,Meta Sienkiewicz,James Stobie,Arlindo daSilva +7 more
TL;DR: The analysis component of the GEOS data assimilation system, Data Assimilation System, Version 1 (GEOS-1 DAS) is described in this article, followed by a thorough description of the statistical interpolation algorithm, including specification of error covariances and quality control of observations.
