Short summary
The objective of this work is to deliver the adjoint model of SECHIBA obtained with software called YAO, in order to perform 4D-VAR data assimilation. The SECHIBA module of the ORCHIDEE land surface model describes the exchanges of water and energy between the surface and the atmosphere. A distributed version is available when only the land surface temperature is used as an observation, with two examples and documentation.
