Abstract
Adaptive data assimilation is becoming an increasingly important aspect of numerical weather prediction. Traditional data assimilation involves combining a set of routine observations with a first-guess field provided by a numerical weather prediction model to produce an analysis of the atmospheric state. These analyses subsequently serve as the initial conditions for extended forecasts.
