  • Data Assimilation

    Tools for Modelling the Ocean in a Global Change Perspective

    Edited by Jacques C.J. Nihoul, Pierre P. Brasseur ...
    Series Book 19 - Nato ASI Subseries I
    Data assimilation is considered a key component of numerical ocean model development and new data acquisition strategies. The basic concept of data assimilation is to combine real observations via estimation theory with dynamic models. Related methodologies exist in meteorology, geophysics and engineering. Of growing importance in physical oceanography, data assimilation can also be exploited in ... Read more

  • Dying and Dead Seas Climatic Versus Anthropic Causes

    Edited by Jacques C.J. Nihoul, Peter O. Zavialov, Philip P. Micklin ...
    Series Book 36 - NATO Science Series: IV
    There are incentive indications that the growth of human population, the increasing use and abuse of natural resources combined with climate changes (probably due to anthropic pollution, to some extent) exert a considerable stress on closed (or semi-enclosed) seas and lakes. In many regions of the world, marine and lacustrine hydrosystems are (or have been) the object of severe or fatal ... Read more
