Data assimilation for extreme ionospheric events: observing system experiments of the September 26, 2011 geomagnetic storm

14 Apr 2016 | Presentations

As increasingly sophisticated ground- and space-based technological systems that depend on the near-Earth space environment are being built, vulnerabilities to variations in the ionosphere are also increasing. These vulnerabilities are especially prominent during extreme space-weather events,...

Hybrid EnKF and Particle Filter: Lagrangian DA and Parameter Estimation

06 Nov 2015 | Presentations

Dealing with high dimensional systems is one of the central problems of data assimilation.  A strategy is proposed here for systems that enjoys a skew-product structure.   Christopher Jones, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, presents joint work with Naratip...
