Conclusions In scatterometer inversion, the shape of the solution surface is more important than the measurement error information In scatterometer inversion, the shape of the solution surface is more important than the measurement error information Wind direction systematic accumulations are substantially reduced when total (wind direction) sensitivity is made uniform (i.e., constant cone curvature) Wind direction systematic accumulations are substantially reduced when total (wind direction) sensitivity is made uniform (i.e., constant cone curvature) When the latter is not possible, systematic accumulations can be reduced with sophisticated AR processing, e.g., MSS + 2D-Var When the latter is not possible, systematic accumulations can be reduced with sophisticated AR processing, e.g., MSS + 2D-Var MSS + 2D-Var is also effective in filtering noise while preserving meteorological consistency and detail, e.g., MSS + 2D-Var is also effective in filtering noise while preserving meteorological consistency and detail, e.g., –Lack of azimuthal diversity –Low winds –High resolution systems
