Diplomanden-Doktoranden-Seminar Bonn, now Cologne – 9. July 2007 Projects & Studies I Of course teaching ( 0 k€) Do students need to know about Curvature Terms to understand the Coriolis force? Geoland (100 k€) -Calculation of global soil moisture fields from AMSR -End of project Final report (financial & scientific) GRAS-CMSAF-SAF Study ( 25 k€) -Validation of Layered Precipitable Water from Champ (GRAS-SAF) and ATOVS (CM-SAF) by radiosondes -Report delivered, but pending because of suspicious biases in CMSAF retrieval
Diplomanden-Doktoranden-Seminar Bonn, now Cologne – 9. July 2007 Projects & Studies II OMDI III and IV ( 36 k€) -Proposal for a future study (1. Dec 2007 to 30. June 2008) about error covariances of satellite retrievals -Advantages of Iterative Lindau Kriging compared to ordinary Block Kriging LandCaRe(166 k€) -Stand-alone runs of TERRA on 2.8 km resolution driven by 18-km LM-Consortial runs
Diplomanden-Doktoranden-Seminar Bonn, now Cologne – 9. July 2007 Susp.TPW bias of ATOVS No GME NCEP mm - 3 % mm + 14 % mm + 27 % The bias using GME as first guess (standard) vanishes for „No first guess“ and is doubled, if NCEP is used.
