An international initiative of predicting the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic using ensemble data assimilation

This work demonstrates the efficiency of using iterative ensemble smoothers to estimate the parameters of an SEIR model. We have extended a standard SEIR model with age-classes and compartments of sick, hospitalized, and dead. The data conditioned on are the daily numbers of accumulated deaths and the number of hospitalized. Also, it is possible...

Data Assimilation for Marine Ecosystem Models

In the presence of environmental issues caused by climate change and eutrophication, ecosystem models capable of providing accurate predictions are of considerable interest. Even the most advanced ecological models are not capable of reproducing reality perfectly, therefore it is essential to integrate them with the available observations. Data...
