= PDAF at the EGU General Assembly 2019 = The research group developing PDAF will be present at the EGU General Assembly from April 8 to 12, 2019 in Vienna, Austria. Members of the group give following presentations: == Short Course == ''SC1.1: Data assimilation in the geosciences - Practical data assimilation with the Parallel Data Assimilation Framework''[[BR]] Convener: Lars Nerger | Co-conveners: Maria Broadbridge, Gernot Geppert, Peter Jan van Leeuwen Thursday, 11 April, 14:00 - 15:45, Room -2.85 In this Short Course we provide an overview of ensemble data assimilation and how to apply it using the PDAF[[BR]] Planned program[[BR]] * 14:00 - 14:40 Introduction to Ensemble Data Assimilation * 14:40 - 15:00 Implementation Concept of PDAF * 15:00 - 15:45 Hands-on example: Build an Assimilation System with PDAF For the hands-on example we will provide a tutorial version of PDAF that will be downloadable without registration. The download link will be announced during the short course. == Oral Presentation == ''Assimilation of satellite sea surface temperature and profile observations into a coupled ocean-atmosphere model''[[BR]] Qi Tang, Dmitry Sidorenko, and Lars Nerger[[BR]] Friday, 12 April, 12:00 - 12:15, Session HS1.2.9, Room 2.15 == Poster Presentation == ''[http://pdaf.awi.de/files/Nerger_etal_AWICM-PDAF_EGU2019.pdf Building an Efficient Ensemble Data Assimilation System for Coupled Models with the Parallel Data Assimilation Framework]''[[BR]] Lars Nerger, Qi Tang, Longjiang Mu, and Dmitry Sidorenko[[BR]] Friday, 12 April, 14:00 - 15:45, Session HS1.2.9, Hall A, Poster A.13 == Presentations by PDAF Users == There will also be presnetations by different users of PDAF, for example[[BR]] ''Assimilation of sea surface temperature in BSH operational circulation model for the North Sea and Baltic Sea''[[BR]] Xin Li, Lars Nerger, and Thorger Bruening[[BR]] Friday, 12 April, 10:45–12:30, Session OS4.11, Hall X4, Poster X4.99 ''Understanding large scale transport: ICON-ART N2O satellite data assimilation with an independent POLSTRACC validation''[[BR]] Jennifer Schröter, Peter Hoor, Jens Krause, Lars Nerger, Roland Ruhnke, Björn-Martin Sinnhuber, and Peter Braesicke[[BR]] Friday, 12 April, 14:00 - 15:45, Session HS1.2.9, Hall A, Poster A.30
