Operational Assimilation of Aeolus HLOS Winds in the Météo France Global NWP Model
This presentation will summarize ongoing activities on monitoring and assimilation of AEOLUS L2B HLOS winds in the Météo-France global operational Numerical Weather Prediction model ARPEGE. Assessment of L2 wind products generated at ECMWF against model counterparts will be provided in terms of global and regional statistics. Results from assimilation experiments of AEOLUS winds in ARPEGE will be shown in terms of quality of enhanced analyses and resulting forecasts.
