Abstract:

In this paper we discuss the methodological problems that arise in planning and conducting specialized large-scale observational experiments on investigating energy exchange processes in climatic systems. The investigations are based on application of the methods of direct and inverse modeling in the framework of the scenario approach. Based the aim of an experiment, a set of functionals is formulated, and the information content is evaluated from these functionals by the methods of theory of model sensitivity. The results of numerical simulation of observational experiments along the Moscow-Vladivostok main line are presented as an example.
