The interactive tool DALo96(V0.1) lets explore the Lorenz 96 dynamics changing the simulation configuration interactively.
The Lorenz 96 model is defined by
where the index is cyclic which means , and .
DALo96 main purpose is to be a tool for explain general concepts of different Data Assimilation (DA) techniques using the Lorenz 96 model. ThCancel changese DA techniques that is possible to explore are
- EnKF
- EnKF Schur Product covariance localization
- EnKF Modified Cholesky
- EnKS
- EnKS Modified Cholesky
For the different implementation the forcing parameter is disturbed with an aditive noise to generate the ensemble space that promotes freedom degrees for a number of model propagations. The forcing parameter can be adjusted in the slider and it can be disturbed with a multiplicative factor with a knob.
It is possible to choose different Data assimilattion techniques and calculates some scores between the analysis step and the truth objective
