PhD Project : RiGHGorous

RiGHGorous in full name stands for : Research for an integrated GreenHouse Gas monitoring system and for its use at DWD. Performing an ensemble simulations of GHG distributions for remote sensing data assimilation.

The core of this project is a data assimilation system utilizing atmospheric observations of greenhouse gas concentrations from satellite instruments to quantify regional-scale sources and sinks of greenhouse gases. Combining the WRF-GHG modeling system for mesoscale simulations of atmospheric greenhouse gas distribution. An ensemble simulation for CO2 and associated tracers (NO2, CO) will be set up and applied to assess the potential of remote sensing of greenhouse gases for the quantification of GHG surface-atmosphere exchange.
