Objectives:
- In synergy with the JCSDA/EMC development of forward operators for cloudy radiances, evaluate all-sky radiance assimilation in hurricane inner core using ensemble data assimilation (EnsDA).
- Conduct preliminary HWRF-EnsDA experiments with cloud microphysics control variables in selected hurricane cases.
