The course will provide an introduction to all data-assimilation methods used in numerical weather prediction, including the latest developments. All methods will be derived from a common framework to provide an overview of the assumptions and hence applicability of the different methods. The course also provides hands-on computer practicals to see the methods in action and gain a better understanding of their working. For those unfamiliar with data assimilation, or those who are keen to develop a deeper understanding of data assimilation methods, this course is a solid preparation for the main <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ecmwf.int\/en\/learning\/training\/data-assimilation\">Data Assimilation ECMWF course<\/a> held on 11-15 March 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Link to all <a href=\"https:\/\/outlook.office.com\/owa\/redir.aspx?REF=foORtY3Rye9d6lngZr1QPx87jMOGorDGTcRZYqEPkxLtJ3pw45fWCAFodHRwczovL3Jlc2VhcmNoLnJlYWRpbmcuYWMudWsvbWV0LWRhcmMvdHJhaW5pbmcvdHJhaW5pbmctY291cnNlcy8.\">DARC courses<\/a>\t\t<\/div>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 role=\"button\" id=\"accordion-1-t2\" class=\"accordion-title js-accordion-controller\" aria-controls=\"accordion-1-c2\" aria-expanded=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\tOverview\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-1-c2\" class=\"accordion-content\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\tAn overview of the subjects covered is given below, including some supplementary material covering the basic mathematics.
