abstract = {This paper presents the development and implementation of a
spatio-temporal variational data assimilation system
(4D-var) for the soil–vegetation–atmosphere transfer
model "Community Land Model" (CLM3.5), along with the
development of the adjoint code for the core
soil–atmosphere transfer scheme of energy and soil
moisture. The purpose of this work is to obtain an improved
estimation technique for the energy fluxes (sensible and
latent heat fluxes) between the soil and the atmosphere.
Optimal assessments of these fluxes are neither available
from model simulations nor measurements alone, while a
4D-var data assimilation has the potential to combine both
information sources by a Best Linear Unbiased Estimate
(BLUE). The 4D-var method requires the development of the
adjoint model of the CLM which is established in this work.
The new data assimilation algorithm is able to assimilate
soil temperature and soil moisture measurements for
one-dimensional columns of the model grid. Numerical
experiments were first used to test the algorithm under
idealised conditions. It was found that the analysis
delivers improved results whenever there is a dependence
between the initial values and the assimilated quantity.
Furthermore, soil temperature and soil moisture from in situ
field measurements were assimilated. These calculations
demonstrate the improved performance of flux estimates,
whenever soil property parameters are available of
sufficient quality. Misspecifications could also be
identified by the performance of the variational scheme.},
