Although the fixed covariance localization in the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) can significantly increase the reliability of background error covariance, it has been demonstrated that extreme impact radii can cause the EnKF to lose some useful information. Tuning an optimal impact radius, on the other hand, is always difficult for a general circulation model. The EnKF multiscale analysis (MSA) approach was presented to make up for the above-mentioned drawback of the fixed localization. As a follow-up, this study presents an adaptive compensatory approach to further improve the performance of the EnKF-MSA. The new method adaptively triggers a multigrid analysis (MGA) to extract multiscale information from the observational residual after the EnKF without inflation is completed at each analysis step. Within a biased twin experiment framework consisting of a barotropic spectral model and an idealized observing system, the performance of the adaptive method is examined. Results show that the MGA redu...
