Abstract

The adjoint method for the velocity and bouyancy retrieval was tested using simulated data of a collapsing cold pool. The aim was to find how the lack of observations above the planetary boundary layer (PBL) affects the retrieval and the subsequent forecast within the PBL. The results emphasize the need for better resolution and stability control near the surface to improve retrieval.
