Improved variational methods in statistical data assimilation
Data assimilation transfers information from an observed system to a physically based model system with state variables x(t). The observations are typically noisy, the model has errors, and the initial state x(t0) is uncertain: the data assimilation is statistical. One can ask about expected values of functions 〈G(X)〉 on the path X={x(t0), . . .,x(tm)} of the model state through the observation...
متن کاملA review of operational methods of variational and ensemble-variational data assimilation: Ensemble-variational data assimilation
Variational and ensemble methods have been developed separately by various research and development groups and each brings its own benefits to data assimilation. In the last decade or so, various ways have been developed to combine these methods, especially with the aims of improving the background-error covariance matrices and of improving efficiency. The field has become confusing, even to ma...
متن کاملVariational assimilation of Lagrangian data in oceanography
We consider the assimilation of Lagrangian data into a primitive equation circulation model of the ocean at basin scale. The Lagrangian data are positions of floats drifting at fixed depth. We aim at reconstructing the fourdimensional space-time circulation of the ocean. This problem is solved using the four-dimensional variational technique and the adjoint method. In this problem the control v...
متن کاملStatistical Analysis Methods for the fMRI Data
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a safe and non-invasive way to assess brain functions by using signal changes associated with brain activity. The technique has become a ubiquitous tool in basic, clinical and cognitive neuroscience. This method can measure little metabolism changes that occur in active part of the brain. We process the fMRI data to be able to find the parts of br...
متن کاملMesoscale Variational Assimilation of Profiling Radiometer Data
Retrieved profiles of temperature, water vapor, and cloud liquid water are obtained through neural net inversions of the brightness temperatures, where the neural net is trained using radiosonde soundings and corresponding forward modeled brightness temperatures. An observation operator has also been developed for the direct assimilation of the measured brightness temperatures, using the forwar...
