Data assimilation is a method that combines models with observations to improve current estimates of model states and parameters, leveraging the information and uncertainties inherent in both models and observations. In this study, we present an ensemble Kalman filter-based data assimilation (DA) framework for ice sheet modeling, aiming to better constrain the model state and key parameters from a single semi-idealized glacier domain. Through a synthetic twin experiment, we show that the ensemble DA method effectively recovers basal conditions and the model state after a few assimilation cycles. Assimilating more observations improves the accuracy of these estimates, thereby improving the model's projection capabilities. We also utilize Observing System Simulation Experiments (OSSEs) to explore the capabilities of the ensemble DA framework to assimilate different types of data and to quantify their impact on the model state and parameter estimation. In our experiments, we assimilate land ice elevation data simulated based on The Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) products. These experiments are crucial for identifying observations with the largest impact on the model state and parameter estimates. Our assimilation results are highly sensitive to design choices for observation networks, such as spatial resolutions and prescribed uncertainties. Notably, the marginal improvements or increases in RMSE observed at coarser resolutions suggest that, beyond a certain spatial threshold, additional observations do not improve and may even degrade long-term estimates of the model state and parameters. The ensemble DA framework, capable of assimilating multi-temporal observations, shows promising results for real glacier applications through a continental ice sheet model. Additionally, this framework provides a flexible infrastructure for performing OSSEs aimed at testing various observational settings for future missions, as it requires less numerical model re-development than variational methods. | |
