Data assimilation
WWOSC, Montreal, 18 August 2014 3
Numerical models contain errors that increase with time due to model imperfections and uncertainties in initial and boundary conditions. Data assimilation minimizes these errors by correcting the model stats using new observations.

LDAS objectives
WWOSC, Montreal, 18 August 2014 6
From reanalyses to large scale land monitoring: integration of satellite products into a land surface model
Use of a Land Data Assimilation System (LDAS) able to perform the sequential assimilation of LAI and SSM satellite-derived observations.
Assess several products jointly and evaluate their consistencyThe LDAS is able to integrate/simulate most of the Copernicus GLS products and is used to:
- perform the cross-cutting quality control of LAI, SSM, FAPAR, surface albedo, LST- detect possible product anomalies (comparing recent months to past multi-annual analyses)- produce agricultural indicators (above-ground biomass, GPP, …) and drought indices
LDAS-France
WWOSC, Montreal, 18 August 2014 7
Within the SURFEX modeling platform of Meteo-France- Interoperable with operational real-time applications: weather forecast, hydrology, atmospheric CO2 inversions- Shared by many meteorological services in Europe and North Africa- Used in CNRM-ARPEGE climate model (IPCC simulations)- Version 8 will be open-source (end 2014)
ISBA-A-gs land surface model- Photosynthesis-driven phenology (no growing degree-days)- All the atmospheric variables impact phenology- Simulates the impact of long-term changes of atmospheric CO2
- Interannual variability of LAImax is modeled- LAI is flexible and can be analyzed at a given time- FAPAR and SA are modeled- SSM is modeled

Difficulties
WWOSC, Montreal, 18 August 2014 15
Assimilation of vegetation products: LAI vs. FAPAR
- FAPAR has very little sensitivity to LAI changes for LAI > 2- FAPAR is a radiative product (has a diurnal cycle, depends on atmospheric variables)- New LAI products are designed to limit the saturation effect (ex. GEOV1, Baret et al. 2013)- However, FAPAR is highly informative at wintertime
Assimilation of surface soil moisture
- ASCAT product has seasonal and interannual issues (vegetation impact on the C-band signal should be better described)- Decoupling in dry conditions- Couple with assimilation of surface temperature (more sensitive to soil water content in dry conditions) ?

Conclusions
WWOSC, Montreal, 18 August 2014 27
Demonstrated synergies between land and atmosphere Copernicus services
Sequential assimilation vs. parameter optimization - Joint sequential assimilation of vegetation variables and soil moisture permits:
- synergies between satellite observations in the visible and microwave spectra
- controlling the model trajectory (needed during extreme events)
- MaxAWC governs the vegetation interannual variability and can be retrieved
LDAS-France is operational - Cross-cutting validation reports are generated every 6 months for the Copernicus Global Land service- Possible application for land reanalyses and drought monitoring- Very good representation of grassland dry matter yield provided MaxAWC is known
