An objective analysis method based on Sasaki's numerical variational analysis technique has been taken up for the analysis of geopotential height and wind over the Indian region. The univariate optimum interpolation (UOI) method is used to generate the initial or input fields. These fields are then adjusted by the variational method. A study of this method over Indian and adjoining region for 850, 700, 500, 300 and 200 hPa levels is made from 4 to 8 July 1979 and the analyses obtained using this method are compared with the FGGE analyses.

A linear dynamical prediction model is combined with a linear analysis scheme to give a formula for the expected squared forecast error, as a function of space and time, given a knowledge of observational error covariance and spectrum of the true field. The formula is applied with a two-layer geostrophic model to estimate the maximum impact of tropospheric temperatures derived from satellite radiances over oceanic areas on the accuracy of 500 mb forecasts over North America. The results show a positive impact if the observations are analyzed by an unrealistically efficient optimum interpolation method, but they show a negative impact at all but the smallest satellite error values if the observations are analyzed by a method that ignores observational errors. Eight conclusions are reached concerning routine numerical forecasts and the First GARP Global Experiment.

AbstractA total of 8218 pelagic microplastic samples from the world’s oceans were synthesized to create a dataset composed of raw, calibrated, processed, and gridded data which are made available to the public. The raw microplastic abundance data were obtained by different research projects using surface net tows or continuous seawater intake. Fibrous microplastics were removed from the calibrated dataset. Microplastic abundance which fluctuates due to vertical mixing under different oceanic conditions was standardized. An optimum interpolation method was used to create the gridded data; in total, there were 24.4 trillion pieces (8.2 × 104 ~ 57.8 × 104 tons) of microplastics in the world’s upper oceans.
