Research brief: New roadmap aims to quickly integrate real-world data into ecosystem models

October 20, 2020 1:41 pm Published by Comments Off on Research brief: New roadmap aims to quickly integrate real-world data into ecosystem models

An international group of researchers performed a critical review of the information infrastructure that connects ecosystem modelling and measurement efforts. This group has now proposed a roadmap to community cyber-infrastructure development that can reduce the divisions between empirical research and modelling, accelerating the pace of discovery.

Research brief: Data assimilation produces more realistic representation of Antarctic warming

New research confirms the long-term cooling over Antarctica during the last millennium and the delayed onset of anthropogenic warming are found in simulations that assimilate palaeoclimate data. This is not evident in simulations without data assimilation.

Research brief: Improving assimilation of radiance observations by implementing model space localisation in an ensemble Kalman filter

The Centre seeks a highly qualified and motivated individual to create new and innovative data assimilation algorithms for discovering model trajectories that closely track observations in the presence of multi-scale, non-linear and non-Gaussian uncertainties such as those associated with observations and forecasts of clouds, precipitation, aerosols, soil moisture, ice, or ocean colour.

Research brief: New insight into plant growth under climate change

July 6, 2018 3:43 am Published by Comments Off on Research brief: New insight into plant growth under climate change

The application of a simple carbon balance model, combined with a data assimilation approach, has the potential to improve the process understanding embedded in models, which is used to predict responses of the carbon cycle to climate change.
