RIT on Weather, Chaos, and Data Assimilation

Organizers: Kayo Ide, Brian Hunt
When: Mondays at 2PM - 3PM
Where: Contact organizers for more info
Description: We study prediction and estimation problems for nonlinear dynamical systems with main applications in (but not limited to) the atmosphere and the ocean. Emphasis is put on uncertainty quantification and reduction.
