Session: H03. Land Surface Observation, Data Assimilation and Their Applications
Abstract: Land surface states and processes have strong impacts on numerical weather, seasonal climate and hydrological predictions and societal economic activities, such as drought and flood mitigation planning. Many in situ networks have been established and remote sensing satellites have been or will be launched to observe the land surface states and processes. Research and application projects have been either carried out or planned to acquire and to assimilate these land data products for the various applications. This session will focus on the lessons learned from these projects.
