Assimilation of ASCAT Sea Surface Wind Retrievals with Correlated Observation Errors

Data assimilation systems usually assume that the observation errors of wind components, i.e., u(the longitudinal component) and v(the latitudinal component), are uncorrelated. However, since wind components are derived from observations in the form of wind speed and direction(spd and dir), the observation errors of u and v are correlated. In this paper, an explicit expression of the observation errors and correlation for each pair of wind components are derived based on the law of error propagation. The new data assimilation scheme considering the correlated error of wind components is implemented in the Weather Research and Forecasting Data Assimilation(WRFDA) system. Besides, adaptive quality control(QC) is introduced to retain the information of high wind-speed observations. Results from real data experiments assimilating the Advanced Scatterometer(ASCAT) sea surface winds suggest that analyses from the new data assimilation scheme are more reasonable compared to those from the conventional one, and could improve the forecasting of Typhoon Noru.     

准噶尔盆地石炭纪—二叠纪地层对比框架新进展

准噶尔盆地的石炭系—二叠系记录了古亚洲洋演化的关键阶段,是重要的烃源岩层位,但其时代划分及地层对比存在极大的不确定性,限制了对地质事件和烃源岩成因及分布规律的认识。本文系统总结了目前已经发表的年代地层和生物地层工作,以碎屑锆石年龄和生物地层数据为依据,结合沉积演化特征,厘定并提出了准噶尔盆地石炭系—二叠系划分和对比的新方案。芦草沟组、平地泉组和下乌尔禾组烃源岩均形成于乌拉尔世（Cisuralian,早二叠世）萨克马尔期(Sakmarian)—亚丁斯克期(Artinskian);风城组时代跨越石炭系—二叠系界线;石人子沟组、塔什库拉组和乌拉泊组下部形成于晚石炭世;盆地内很可能缺失空谷阶(Kungurian)至瓜达鲁普统(Guadalupian)大部分沉积。新的地层对比框架极大地改变了以往对准噶尔盆地石炭纪—二叠纪地层时代归属的认识,为建立统一的全盆地沉积演化模式提供了新的依据和方案。     

古地貌对生物碎屑灰岩沉积成岩的控制作用

<正>X油田位于伊拉克东南部,是以生物碎屑灰岩为主的巨型油田,主力产层为白垩系M组下段MB2—MC1油藏,也是滩相沉积最为发育的层段。相比于碎屑岩,碳酸盐岩储层发育控制因素更为复杂,包括海平面升降、生物生活习性及古地貌特征等,研究难度更大(杜相仪等,2021)。特别是中东生物碎屑灰岩,受限于资料限制,古地貌相关研究较为缺乏,其对沉积特征和差异成岩的控制作用研究较少涉及（Assadi et al., 2023）。本文基于地震、测井、     

Assimilation of <Emphasis Type="Italic">HY-2A</Emphasis> scatterometer ambiguous winds based on feature thinning

This paper focuses on the data assimilation methods for sea surface winds, based on the level-2B HY-2A satellite microwave scatterometer wind products. We propose a new feature thinning method, which is herein used to screen scatterometer winds while maintaining the key structure of the wind field in the process of data thinning for highresolution satellite observations. We also accomplish feeding the ambiguous wind solutions directly into the data assimilation system, thus making better use of the retrieved information while simplifying the assimilation process of the scatterometer products. A numerical simulation experiment involving Typhoon Danas shows that our method gives better results than the traditional approach. This method may be a valuable alternative for operational satellite data assimilation.
