Abstract

The performance of a direct variational data assimilation algorithm with quasi-independent data assimilation at individual steps of the splitting scheme was evaluated in the realistic scenario of the air pollution assessment in the city of Novosibirsk. An algorithm with minimization of the spatial derivative of the uncertainty (control) function, which is adjusted to assimilate data, was considered in the case of sparse monitoring network. The use of the spatial derivative minimization allowed increasing smoothness of the uncertainty (control functions) reconstructed, which has a positive effect on the reconstruction quality in the scenario considered.
