A New Interpolation Algorithm in Fast Radiative Transfer Model
Many schemes of interpolation can be used for mapping from various coordinates of the numerical weather predictions (NWP) to the vertical coordinates of data assimilation systems.While most of the schemes do not imply the availability of a corresponding vertical mapping between the coordinates,even they are not implemented expediently.This leads to very noisy gradient with large unrealistic spikes which are simulated by the fast radiance transfer(RT) model for the first guest values from the numerical weather system and,consequently to incorrect data assimilation.The memorandum analyses a new algorithm of piecewise weighted integral interpolation applied in the Radiative Transfer for (OS) Operation Vertical Sounders (RTTOV).Experimental(S) show that the internal interpolation incorporated into RTTOV can map the coordinate of NWP model to the coordinate of data assimilation system flexibility,and can use the atmospheric information of the profiles on coordinate of NWP model sufficiently.Also the internal RTTOV interpolation can avoid blind levels derived from the nearest-neighbor log-linear interpolator and successfully retain the smooth structure of the radiance gradients.
