Difficulty of data assimilation arises from a large difference between the sizes of a state vector to be determined, i.e., the number of spatiotemporal grid points of a discretized numerical model, and a measurement vector, i.e., amount of measurement data. Flow variables on a large number of grid points are hardly defined by spatiotemporally limited amount of measurement data that poses an underdetermined problem. In this study we conduct sensitivity analysis of a vortex flow field by the use of an adjoint method. The idea of optimal/targeted observation in meteorology which aim to effectively determine a flow state by limited observations is interpreted in fluid dynamic problems where unsteady flows of much smaller scales are of interest.
