Description

Action 10 DRI ROPP 7

Evaluate options for full 1DVar validation testing e.g. by including relevant plots on the monitoring web site (such as temperature comparisons of the 1DVar ROPP module to the Met Office derived temperature): due date: ROPP 8.0

The feasibility of producing 1D-Var validation plots routinely is being examined.

It is possible that this will involve statistics showing how 1D-Var solutions from ropp_1dvar compare to the background profiles and verifying analyses (from ECMWF).

Action 6 from PT14 is for DMI to assess the methods required to validate 1D-Var data products routinely. A natural extension of such monitoring would be a parallel stream using a pre-release build of ropp_1dvar. This form of routine validation testing would be more representative of operational usage, so is preferable to a one-off report.

As the options have been evaluated, I will close the ticket. A new one will be opened once Action 6 has been closed.
