Release notes for PDAF

Version 1.7 - September 16, 2011

Changes:

  • Revised internal structure of PDAF to simplify implementation of additional assimilation methods.
  • Added full data assimilation implementation of Lorenz-96 model with PDAF.
  • Revision of observation localization. It also includes the regulated localization that was introduced in the paper "A regulated localization scheme for ensemble-based Kalman filters" by L. Nerger et al. to appear in Q. J. Roy. Meteor. Soc."
  • Added an option to display parameter options for a selected filter using the compiled program.
  • Added routines with a simplified interface. The simplified interface does not require that you provide the names of user-supplied subroutines int he call to PDAF. However, one is restricted to use pre-defined routine names.
  • License change: Now PDAF is licensed with the more flexible Lesser GNU Public License (older versions of PDAF used the GNU Public License).
