Special Issue in Journal of Meteorological Research
Data assimilation across scales and disciplines
In conjunction with the 8th WMO Symposium on Data Assimilation & 12th International Symposium on Data Assimilation, we are pleased to announce a Special Issue in Journal of Meteorological Research dedicated to recent advances in data assimilation theory, methodology, and applications that spans multiple scales — from short-term weather forecasting to long-term paleoclimate reconstruction — and diverse disciplines, including data science, geoscience, biology, and engineering.
Scope of the Special Issue
Submissions may address, but are not limited to:
Journal of Meteorological Research publishes research that advances observation, modeling, and forecasting/prediction of weather and climate, as well as related topics in earth system sciences.
Waivers of Page Charges
Journal of Meteorological Research has kindly agreed to waive the page charges for papers accepted to this Special Issue.
Important Dates
Manuscript submission deadline: 28 February 2027
Anticipated Publication: Rolling publication upon acceptance
“Special Issue: Data assimilation across scales and disciplines”
All submissions must follow the journal’s author guidelines available on the Journal of Meteorological Research website.
We look forward to receiving high-quality contributions that advance the theoretical foundations and operational applications of data assimilation and contribute to improved weather prediction, climate projection, and Earth system science.
Data assimilation across scales and disciplines

Scope of the Special Issue
Submissions may address, but are not limited to:
- Methodology: DA theory and mathematics, ensemble approaches, non-linear and non-Gaussian DA, convective-scale and ultra-rapid DA, innovative approaches to reanalysis
- Observations: assimilation of remotely sensed observations (satellite, radar, GNSS, and unconventional observations), observations and impacts, OSSE, OSE
- Hybrid DA and ML: integration of ML to DA, hybrid DA and ML techniques, fully data-driven DA frameworks, predictability and uncertainty quantification for ML-based models, feedback from DA to ML
- DA infrastructure and center updates: developments in DA infrastructures (e.g., DART, JEDI, PDAF), updates from operational centers on DA, updates from global and regional reanalysis producers
- DA for the Earth system: atmosphere-land/ocean/sea ice coupled DA, atmospheric composition DA, seamless approaches - from minutes to seasons / multi-scale aspects, paleoclimate DA
- Broad Applications, Perspectives and Predictive Sciences: digital twin and controllability, extreme events and high-impact weather in forecasting and reanalysis, renewable energy, hydrology, socio economic applications
Journal of Meteorological Research publishes research that advances observation, modeling, and forecasting/prediction of weather and climate, as well as related topics in earth system sciences.
- Covers both basic and applied dynamics, physics, and chemistry of the atmosphere and its interfaces
- A Springer co-sponsored journal focused on speed of submission and review, service, and integrity
- Official journal of the Chinese Meteorological Society
