Prospects for Data Assimilation in Magnetosphere Models Joachim Raeder Space Science Center, University of New Hampshire, Durham, NH GEM Summer Workshop, Portsmouth, VA, June 19, 2014 Outline Why data assimilation? Data coverage and the daily forecast. A step back: subjective and objective analysis. Model initialization and the assimilation cycle. Can we use this in the magnetosphere? DA in regional models. Parameter estimation and bias correction Ensemble prediction. Why do we want data assimilation? Weather forecasts have shown dramatic improvements over the past 60(!) years. These improve
