A one-step blended soundproof-compressible model with balanced data assimilation: theory and idealised tests
@article{Chew2021AOB, title={A one-step blended soundproof-compressible model with balanced data assimilation: theory and idealised tests}, author={Raymond Chew and Tommaso Benacchio and Gottfried Hastermann and Rupert Klein}, journal={Monthly Weather Review}, year={2021} }
A challenge arising from the local Bayesian assimilation of data in an atmospheric flow simulation is the imbalances it may introduce. Acoustic fast-mode imbalances of the order of the slower dynamics can be negated by employing a blended numerical model with seamless access to the compressible and the soundproof pseudo-incompressible dynamics. Here, the blended modelling strategy by Benacchio et al., MWR, vol. 142 (2014) is upgraded in an advanced numerical framework and extended with a…
