- the expected air temperature and moisture structure in the lowest 2 m together with energy fluxes (from HTESSEL) and an analysis of observed screen level (2 m) humidities.
- satellite soil moisture data from the ASCAT sensor on the MetOp satellites
- data from the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity satellite mission (SMOS) is used for operational monitoring (see Fig2.1.4.5-34).
The 2m temperature and humidity are diagnostic parameters of the model, so their analysis only has an indirect effect on atmosphere through the soil and snow variables.
