ABSTRACT

I will compare Kalman filter methods with statistical particle filtering methods in Lagrangian data assimilation. Even EnKF has problems handling certain nonlinear issues that arise from trajectories that sample from regions of high nonlinearity. Particle filter methods offer a way forward but also challenges in scaling up to large-dimensional problems.
