Description:

"Operational experience with optimum interpolation at NMC and elsewhere has stimulated close examination of the characteristics of the method. Some of the questions have arisen out of the basic formulation of the method; for example, how sensitive is the resulting analysis to variations in the theoretical forecast error covariance model? Others result from compromises necessary to implement optimum interpolation on existing computers for execution within operational deadlines. For example, computer limitations require restricting the amount of data influencing the analysis at any point; one can then enquire what the implications of this are, and what is the proper way to select observations to be used"--Introduction
