Adjoint models are increasingly applied to many problems in meteorology and oceanography. The adjoint model of MM5 is a tool which effectively computes the gradient (or a Gateau-derivative) of any MM5 forecast aspect with respect to the model's control variables, which consist of model initial conditions, boundary conditions, and model parameters that define the physical and numerical conditions of the integration. Different applications of adjoint models in meteorology are briefly reviewed and their mathematical formulae are provided which illustrate how the adjoint model and/or tangent linear model are used in each application. Then the authors describe the mathematical and numerical formulation used in developing the adjoint version of MM5.
