Forward Operator Inventory
"Forward Operators" translate the state of the atmosphere in the model into virtual measurements, which can be directly compared to real measurements. The project HD(CP)² provided a framework which exploited the full potential of forward operators for a range of resolutions. The Forward Operator Inventory gives an overview of existing and used operators in HD(CP)², new developments and provides meta data, as simulated devices, and model requirements.
