GEOS-CHEM CHEMICAL FORECASTING IN TRACE-P
5-day GEOS-3 forecast fields from DAO (2ox2.5o, 2x/day) and daily assimilated fields (1ox1o) were used to drive off-line CO simulation 0Z: start of forecast 14Z: forecast available from DAO DAY 16Z: GEOS-CHEM forecast product sent to TRACE-P team GEOS-CHEM update of CO initial condions using assimilated GEOS fields GEOS-CHEM forecast
3
SUCCESS OF FORECAST AND ASSIMILATED GEOS FIELDS IN REPRODUCING VARIANCE OF OBSERVED CO DURING TRACE-P Forecast Assimilation
4
SMEARING AND DISPLACEMENT ERRORS IN GEOS-CHEM FORECASTS DURING TRACE-P
