We invite contributions on data assimilation into coupled models. The applications of interest extend through the Earth system like atmosphere, ocean and sea ice, land surface and shallow subsurface including hydrology, ecosystems, biogeochemical cycles and glaciology, solid Earth (deeper subsurface) and geodesy. Contributions on weakly and strongly coupled data assimilation - methodology and applications, including Numerical Prediction, Environmental forecasts, Earth system monitoring, reanalysis, etc., as well as computational aspects of data assimilation into Earth system models are welcome. Of interest are also contributions focusing on coupled covariances and uncertainty quantification for coupled models. Further, we welcome contributions studying the added value of observations (e.g., on constraining inter-component fluxes) at the interface of component and collocated observations at interfaces.
