An introduction to Data Assimilation
Data assimilation is used in NWP to define ‘optimal' initial conditions for numerical forecasts. In this lesson you will define data assimilation and explore how it is used at ECMWF.
Data assimilation is used in NWP to define ‘optimal' initial conditions for numerical forecasts. In this lesson you will define data assimilation and explore how it is used at ECMWF.
This lesson provides details on the various data sources, and strategies to find the data needed: Processing steps, choosing projections, scenarios, ensembles, variables etc. The lesson is a follow-up of “Climate Data Discovery – Introduction”.
This lesson provides an introduction to the different sources of climate data and guides you to find the data you need.
This ‘hands-on’ lesson covers climate projections, differences between climate models, and how to choose from climate projection data.
This lesson explains how climate models work and how the quality of climate models can be evaluated. Differences between climate projections, predictions and scenarios are explained.
This lessen provides an overview of the various types of climate data resources, and teaches what Essential Climate Variables are. It will indicate the main advantages and disadvantages of the various data sources.
This lesson provides training on observations data. The different types of measurements are explained, the types of observing systems and the measurement uncertainty are explained.
This lesson teaches users the basics of climate reanalysis. The lesson explains how reanalyses are made, an overview of global reanalyses datasets, and their strengths and limitations.
ecCodes is software developed by ECMWF to decode and encode in WMO GRIB and BUFR formats. This lesson focuses on handling GRIB data with ecCodes tools.
Web services are used to visualise geographical data. This lesson describes web services, data standards and outlines what OGC and INSPIRE are.
ecCodes is software developed by ECMWF to decode and encode in WMO GRIB and BUFR formats. This lesson will introduce you to the BUFR format for decoding of BUFR data.
Metview is a powerful meteorological workstation application that enables you to access, process and visualise meteorological data. In this lesson you will learn how to use MetView.
The Meteorological Archival and Retrieval System (MARS) enables users to access ECMWF’s data. This lesson will look at MARS requests and explore its compute capability.
The Meteorological Archival and Retrieval System (MARS) enables users to access ECMWF’s data. This lesson will teach you how to create a customised data retrieval.
This lesson will provide a quick overview of Metview's main features and enable you to use Metview to analyse and edit input data for the single-column model, run the model and visualise its output.
This course includes 6 modules and is as introduction to the main topics, from the processing of observations to data assimilation, forecasting and post-processing.
This module will teach you about data sources, the role of satellite observations, satellite data measurements, assimilation, and monitoring of satellite observations.
In this lesson you will learn how to use the Climate Data Store (CDS) for applications in the health sector. The lesson focuses on urban heat. The lessons shows data and indicators from SIS-European Health.
