“…They include satellite radiances for polar orbiting platforms (HIRS, AMSU-A, AMSU-B/MHS, SSMI/S, ATMS, IASI, CrIS, AIRS), atmospheric motion vectors from METEOSAT-7, scatterometer ocean surface winds from the ASCAT instruments (METOP-A and B), and also few conventional observations (land surface networks, radiosoundings, aircraft measurements, BUOY and SHIP reports). In addition to these observations, a 3D analytical wind bogus vortex is calculated based on the information contained in TC warning reports (16 bogus points in two concentric circles on each of four atmospheric levels) (Montroty et al, 2008). Observations available 3-h before and after the analysis time are considered in the assimilation and assumed to be valid at the analysis time (i.e.…”

“…It provided reliable information on the track and the vortex response to the external forcing as it captured many observed characteristics of the storm and key aspects of the interaction, such as the tongue of dry air that gradually encircled the western side of TC Dora in association with the stratospheric intrusion. This 60-h forecast, initialized at t 0 5 0600 UTC 31 January, was carried out using the limited-area atmospheric model AladinRéunion (Montroty et al 2008) in its 2011 operational configuration (hydrostatic, 70 vertical levels, 8-km horizontal resolution, and a fixed domain shown in Fig. 3).…”

“…To obtain a realistic vortex structure and position at the base time of the forecast, the Aladin's threedimensional variational data assimilation (3D-Var) of cyclone wind bogus (Montroty et al 2008) was employed. Synthetic wind observations deduced from the Holland (1980) analytical model, plus the mean sea level pressure at the TC center, were produced from the surface to 500 hPa.…”

“…Bogussing is such a technique: pseudo-observations deduced from an observed coherent structure are assimilated as conventional observations (wind, humidity, etc.). The assumptions that link the image to the pseudo-observation are often simplified (Heming et al, 1995;Michel, 2011;Montroty et al, 2008), and such methods are not fully objective. Michel (2011) concluded about the severe limitations of bogussing.…”
