    315 The default mode of PDAF-OMI uses a diagonal observation error covariance matrix **R**. The observation error variances can vary. `ivar_obs_p` is used to specify the inverse observation error variances.

    316316This should be a vector of real values. It will be used as an argument to `PDAFomi_gather_obs`. The order of the entries has to be consistent in the arrays `thisobs%id_obs_p`, `obs_p`, `ivar_obs_p`, and `ocoord_p`.

     318If **non-diagonal observation error covariance matrices** are used, which is supported from PDAF 2.3, `ivar_obs_p` still has to be allocated and initialized. However, since the handling of **R** is ddone in a call-back routine if **R** is non-diagonal, it is up to the user whether this information is used. For more information see the **[wiki:OMI_nondiagonal_observation_error_covariance_matrices page on using non-diagonal R-matrices with OMI]**.
