8 Comparison with the fixed lag Kalman Smoother Fixed lag Kalman smoother (e.g., Peters et al., 2005) uses the expanded state vector and the multiple time analysis. has major advantages in analyzing long term variations of global surface fluxes at a large scale. since the approach allows the use of large constraints obtained from a long data assimilation window (possibly) w/o serious model error growth with time and sampling errors. It might be difficult to obtain meaningful constrains from remote data on surface flux variations especially at a fine scale.

9 Comparison with the fixed lag Kalman Smoother Fixed lag Kalman smoother (e.g., Peters et al., 2005) uses the expanded state vector and the multiple time analysis. has major advantages in analyzing long term variations of global surface fluxes at a large scale. since the approach allows the use of large constraints obtained from a long data assimilation window (possibly) w/o serious model error growth with time and sampling errors. It might be difficult to obtain meaningful constrains from remote data on surface flux variations especially at a fine scale. Our method, with localized analyses, has advantages in analyzing fine scale structures in surface fluxes, if provided sufficient observational information is available in a localized space. However, when the analysis increment is too localized, some areas are possibly under-constrained.
