Increasing the resolution of a model can improve performance data assimilation system: first because field are in better agreement with high observations, then corrections sustained and, ensemble assimilation, forecast error covariances improved. However, increase is associated cubical computational costs. Here we testing an approach inspired from images super-resolution techniques and called "Super-resolution assimilation" (SRDA). Starting low-resolution forecast, neural network (NN)...
A computational simplification of the Kalman filter (KF) is introduced – parametric (PKF). The full covariance matrix dynamics KF, which describes evolution along analysis and forecast cycle, replaced by error variance diffusion tensor, related to correlation length-scales. PKF developed here has been applied simplified framework advection–diffusion a passive tracer, for its use in chemical transport model assimilation. easy compute computationally cost-effective than an ensemble (EnKF) this...
Abstract Ensemble data assimilation methods, such as the Kalman Filter (EnKF), are well suited for climate reanalysis because they feature flow‐dependent covariance. However, Earth System Models heavy computationally, method uses a few tens of members. Sampling error in covariance matrix can introduce biases deep ocean, which may cause drift and predictions. Here, we assess potential hybrid approach (EnKF‐OI) to counteract sampling error. The EnKF‐OI combines computed from dynamical ensemble...
In this contribution, Metapod, a novel C++ library computing efficiently dynamic algorithms is presented. It uses template-programming techniques together with code-generation. The achieved performances shows some advantage over the state-of-the art RBDL mostly on ATOM processor and for inertia matrix computation, which are relevant robotics application. On recent desktop computer, ratio of gain not so obvious in general time by both significantly different inverse dynamics. that it...
Background ROHHAD syndrome (Rapid-onset Obesity with Hypothalamic dysfunction, Hypoventilation and Autonomic Dysregulation) is rare. Rapid-onset morbid obesity usually the first recognizable sign of this syndrome, however a subset patients develop without obesity. The prevalence entity currently unknown. Alteration respiratory control as well dysautonomic disorders often have fatal outcome, thus early recognition essential. Material methods A retrospective, observational, multicenter study...

Spray drift of glyphosate has the potential to affect non-target vegetation and surface waters close application area. To assess likelihood such impact along Swedish railways, four field experiments were conducted at three railway sites during 2019 2020. An herbicide spraying train applied Roundup Ultra (glyphosate) speeds 33 48 km/h. Quantitative filter papers placed 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3 5 m distances capture spray droplets.

Sea surface temperature (SST) observations are a critical data set for long-term climate reconstruction. However, their assimilation with an ensemble-based method can degrade performance in the ocean interior due to spurious covariances. Assimilation isopycnal coordinates delay degradation, but it remains problematic long reanalysis. We introduce vertical localization SST coordinate. The tapering functions formulated empirically from large pre-industrial ensemble. propose three schemes: 1)...
