Assimilation of lidar observations of aerosols for climate modelling and NWP

The objective of the Aeolus/EarthCARE Aerosol Assimilation Studies (A3S) project was to allow assimilation of the Aeolus L2A lidar backscatter data, also paving the way for the assimilation of EarthCARE products. Since the Aeolus and EarthCARE missions were not yet launched at the time of the study, demonstration datasets based on model data (MOCAGE model for the aerosols and the IFS for the clouds) and a one-day dataset based on CALIPSO data (reprocessed at the UV wavelength and with the Aeolus orbit data) was created.

APEL: Assessment of atmospheric optical Properties during biomass burning Events and Long-range transport of desert dust

The main scope of this activity was to foster the exchange of expertise between the European Lidar Network (EARLINET) and Latin America Lidar Network (LALINET), and demonstrate the capability of joint research, setting the groundwork for GALION (The Global Atmosphere Watch Aerosol Lidar Observation Network) and future calibration/validation of ESA’s atmospheric satellite missions such as Aeolus and EarthCARE.

Operational Assimilation of Space-borne Radar and Lidar Cloud Profile Observations for Numerical Weather Prediction

The main objectives of this project were to develop the tools and structure to enable routine EarthCARE radar and lidar observations of clouds to be assimilated in the ECMWF Numerical Weather Prediction model and to prepare for the real-time monitoring of the observations to detect instrument degradation or errors. This required adjustments of assimilation tools, such as the observation operators, observation error definition, quality control, data screening and bias correction.

GNSS-R – Assessment of Requirements and Consolidation of Retrieval Algorithms (GARCA)

The main goals of the GARCA project are:

(1) To develop a tool capable to simulate GNSS-R data products for various instrument implementations using state-of-the-art techniques, including GEROS phase-A candidates, up to Level-1 observables and Level-2 geophysical data products, which will be freely and easily accessible to the interdisciplinary scientific GEROS community.

(2) To study the compliance of different GEROS implementations with respect to the Mission Requirements, and study the optimization of its geophysical data products.
