Roundtable Discussion: How to Define and Include Bias Considerations in
Future OSSEs and Other OSSE topics
- Potential bias errors from the environment (i.e., atmosphere, scattering,
WV, spectroscopy, etc.)
- Potential bias errors from the instrument (i.e., offsets, nonlinearities, orbitor angle-dependent effects)
- What is the easiest way to adapt our emerging "random error simulation
capability" to assess these?
- Dry-Air Mass Calculations
- What are the appropriate approaches to determine “how small do the bias
errors need to be” to address the/other different candidate science
questions? Finally, and importantly, target dates in CY11, to complete
various aspects of OSSE studies.
