## Abstract Incremental four‐dimensional variational assimilation (4D‐Var) is an algorithm that approximately solves a nonlinear minimization problem by solving a sequence of linearized (quadratic) minimization problems of the form where **x** is the control vector, **A** is a symmetric positive‐d

## Abstract The Met Office has developed a 4D‐Var data assimilation system, which was implemented in the global forecast system on 5 October 2004. This followed a development path based on the previous 3D‐Var configuration, with many aspects kept in common. A 4D‐Var capability was provided by the i

## Abstract We review the limits of 4D‐Var, particularly its ability to work well for a wide range of scales, and discuss the relationship to the atmospheric butterfly effect. As a concrete example, we consider how 4D‐Var might be applied to a global, convective‐scale model. Deterministic 4D‐Var, f
