A collocation study of atmospheric motion vectors (AMVs) compared to Aeolus wind profiles with a feature track correction (FTC) observation operator

A method to apply an empirical feature track correction (FTC) in a new observation operator for atmospheric motion vectors (AMVs) is proposed. The FTC AMV observation operator determines the background estimate of the observed AMV vector wind, adjusting the background profile by determining an optim...
