Control of lateral boundary conditions in four-dimensional variational data assimilation for a limited area model

The limited area model forecasting problem is a lateral boundary condition (LBC) problem in addition to the initial condition problem. The data assimilation has traditionally been considered as a process for estimation of the initial condition only, while for the limited area data assimilation this...
